On the day after more than seven million people marched in No Kings Day protests,
And after a night and morning of pouring rain,
The sun is out, and all the sidewalk windows up to the sky are briefly opened.
I glance into each puddle as I pass to see what is temporarily on offer.
I see clouds, trees and leaves, telephone wires, and a lot of imagined possibility.








There is a glimmer of hope reflected, that so many showed up, peacefully danced with inflatable frogs, and no violence occurred.


I appreciate the glimmers today.
