Things not Seen
What happened while you slept?
Pale pink petals fell
As rain in heaps on your bed.
You opened your eyes and they vanished.
Nobody ever saw them,
But who can say it’s a lie?
What happened when you blinked?
Pegasus spread his white wings,
And faster than a white-feathered arrow
Disappeared into the blue.
Nobody ever saw it,
But who can say it’s a lie?
