Where the Boundary Between Acting and Perceiving Ends

Bartlett Arboretum

The forest yields a xylophone,
a Potter's Field,
Hasidim with their long white beards.
I talk to the birds with the mallets,
place a stone on the stone,
say "good day" to a fellow human.
There's only joy and peace and laughing.
The elves need me as much as I need them.
