Sunlight glinting...

And just when we forget about it and relax, there it is.

Like sunlight suddenly glinting your eye from the side

While you're driving your car.

Warmth pressed
Behind me
As close as the peel of a banana
To its fruit
Melded and almost one

You decide you are just going to plunge in.
Because that is life, living. Not cowering.

Traversing backroads paths.
