Moment
by Cherise Wyneken
From Canary Spring 2010
Winds from the Pacific sweep through the Golden Gate Bridge, cross the Bay, and strew white plum blossoms, like falling snow, through Cherise?s backyard in the San Pablo Bay Watershed.
So still
I thought the world had stopped.
One brief moment
between horns and motor cars:
Silence turned
and glanced at me.
