Flower Spirit

Heard you say
Namaste
That surprised me
Yesterday

I went to the café
I averted my gaze
I resisted temptation
I insisted on water

Heard you say
Agnus Dei
What's that mean
Anyway?

I still walk through the buildings
I look through the windows
Admire the light
Get caught by the spirit

Heard you say
We'll be okay
I've got questions
Anyway

When the stars flicker
And I pick the flower
Does the flower spirit
Leave the flower body?
