balancing tea and faithfulness.

If you can't find me

try the farmers market

Try the girl in the skirt

with the basket full of blueberries and oats

Try the window sill

with the birds and the basil plants

their names are marguerite, genevieve, pauline and tommy

you can ask them.

Try the river with the downed bicycle

her name is marguerite too

She'd tell you if you breathe deep enough

you might smell me.

Try the paints, the pasta, the stars.

The farmer in Grant Park

The whale in the sky.

One of them will know.
