Think of the long trip home.
Should we have stayed at home and thought of here?
Where should we be today?

in our bodies, we are determined to rush
to see the sun the other way around?
The tiniest green hummingbird in the world?

inexplicable and impenetrable,
at any view,
instantly seen and always, always delightful?

and have them, too?
And have we room
for one more folded sunset, still quite warm? — Elizabeth Bishop
