Morning walk

In Catalpa Park, 
The giant riding lawnmowers cut circular patterns 
around the scattered trees, 
Leaving behind rings in the wet grass, 
As if the trees were stones dropped into a green pond, 
Ripples spreading out from their bases, 
frozen in the moment after impact. 

Seeing this seems to slow time
And for a moment I feel my sneakers
are walking on water
