I draw the outline of your body
against the empty blue sky.
The air is displaced only for a moment,
then returns to its former self, quiet,
indistinct amidst the whispering
of trees and witch grass.
It is early in the day, not yet autumn,
And no one knows you have
been there but me.
[Greg Watson, 'A Brief Encounter' from Things You Will Never See Again]
