Orange Sky
It is one of those strange evenings
when orange clouds fill the sky.
It is an end of the day
when showers bring out
newspaper umbrellas
as people race to their cars
with an arm full of groceries.
A girl with wide hips and
soulful eyes walks her dog
unaware of my presence and
without notice of the blazing sky.
To her, I am transparent
as I stand on one leg
like a seagull perched
on a post in sea breeze
and a smilie wide in hope
her eyes will find me
aching for her to ache for
me.
