Light flat
Stubborn in its persistence
Its sameness
Its calm

Saying nothing about the place
Awaiting the smallest change
The smallest intrusion
To which it generously gives prominence
And identity

At the same time the intrusion gives identity
To those aspects of the place
That make the intrusion evident
And that, taken together,
Construct meaning

Mild movement of the trees
Now wind is evident
And the light snow
Articulating shapes and parts of the trees
Clarifying relationships among surfaces
Movement of people, vehicles
Making evident their paths of movement
Revealing their behavior
Through speed, direction, energy, noise, consistency

Now the evening submerges all
In darkening shades of grey.
