A moment's motion

A moment's motion

A Poem by Reetta

A moment's motion
Moves the green wheat in the wind

A mind of a man in a city cafe
Makes music in words carefully chosen

In a field of roses,
Millions of molecules come together
In an exhibition,
Modestly manifesting the meaning of life
To those mindful

At a moment's whim,
A girl in a dress with lilac embroidery
Plucks the wheat from its soil
And the meaning dissipates in the misty field.

At a moment of misfortune in a city cafe
A man sits in a love seat
And a wandering cat with eyes of golden wheat
Gives him a scratch of deadly fever in return for a pat and a spot on his seat.

To a multiversal medium for life,
Meaningless are moments of misfortune and mindless meandering

But a moment's meaning is found in
The whisper of wheat in the wind,
The music of the moment
And the rustle of a dress in a misty field
