A Remark You Made

confirmed
that someone
had indeed been listening to me,
at least once
by chance more than anything;

lovely, indeed,
to imagine that for a moment,

to think of the earth
outside the front door
cradling a seed
I dropped without thinking
on my hurried way
to another place
where no one would listen
for more than a moment.

Yes, I’m grateful to you and
yes, I’m glad it is spring
at last, and that there may be
a chance, a small chance,
of seeing green soon.
