While I wait for you,
I wash the dishes
and stare out of the window
for some kind of sign 
that soon the sound 
of your footsteps
will draw near
and you will wrap
your arms around my life 
and hold it close.

Electricity snakes
through the garden
in bright orange skin,
alarming the ducks
with its power to deliver
light before dawn.
