Of the newly painted garden chair
Around the legs
Of the man, now in shorts again
After sixty years of long trousers
Around, through
The trees of the old orchard
Around, through (almost)
The ageing pampas grass
The recently planted silver birch
Over, above, also below
The aeroplanes, or helicopters
Over, above, also below
The few cotton-strands of clouds
The vast expanse of clear blue sky
In front of, yes, also behind
The face, the head of the meditator
In front of, yes, also behind
The curly locks of one who contemplates
The one who says many thanks, for the breeze
