So on your first day 2008 how was the revolution of the earth,
Tumultuous, fiery, suffused with saffron?
It looked that way as we sat on sand
Watching the turn away tonight into darkness,
Away from the light of the starsun
On January one, 2008.
Morning broke with Santa Ana fury
Howling all day chasing the kittens into cuddly corners.
The eucalyptus flew all over the roads, pieces as big as cars
But at dusk I went down to walk by the ocean anyway
To say goodbye to the 1st turn of this earth.
Riding, winding around and down to the beach with my daughter.
Against silhouettes of the palms.
The winds retreated to wherever they come from,
So that night could creep in silently.
Calmy. With a prettiness. Like when in love you receive a bouquet,
Tentatively, shyly, red-faced a bit in a blush.
So came our dusk.
2008 coming to our lives.
