Dials
A master at telling time.
That’s what I’ve become.
A being who watched arrows
and blinking lights,
fluorescence sprinkled over words.
Your smiles are seasons,
whole months of weather.
Vibrant with ticking,
they shape my days.
You have become a sundial for me.
I depend on shadows
to show me the truth.

Subconscious Jungian reflective poem heartening as the sundial imagery still glimmers
in the eye of the beholders, well self contained with reflective constraint.
