Those Little Things
They say poetry thrives
in storms that conceal the sun
in forests that bear no fruit
in bouquets with blushing flowers
But I have seen it
in the smallest things
in the way someone sits with you
when the bench isn't full
filling the emptiness
where it used to be full
the way my phone and I
light up at every notification
when your name appears
the quiet gestures
that say I'm here
without making a sound
