Sticky Stalactites – v3


Pine sap, oozing, slowly
running down a brown needle
hanging suspended in air
like a glass ornament, a teardrop
or taffy, pulled, hanging
a small speck of wonder
frozen for those who look
who notice, the amber, the syrup,
seeing the miracle, the beauty
all around us, of nature
even in the center of the city
little moments of wildness
oasis in that desert
