sago taking root

three (3!) days more and he will find me.
he will find the sago palm beside the patio.
facing to the sun as true cats do, they will 
nap on talavera pottery, still warm from the 
kiln.  and speak in fluent spanish.  
in three (3!) days more when he sets down 
by shortcuts, from milk river moon 
to fields of stars  
the floating wind will 
play the hollowed bamboo chimes.  
in three days more.
