Effulgence

amidst

the bustling

of the caulkers

and the swishing

of the air as 

the hammers swing

simultaneously

in harmony

the shimmering

of tranquility

beckons

_not_

the tranquility

of contrast

to activity,

no:

this is

the pre-creational

tranquility

of the acquiescent

about-to-be:

not quite pregnant yet

but far from infertile

either
