GOOD NEWS

by Robert M. Chute

Good news — bright motes afloat in the dark
stream of evening commentary. Bite bits about
those few who work dead water eddies, weedy
margins, bring relief to the poorest, the least.
They only ask that they may give, carry water
in a sieve and yet will shame use daily.

If you're waiting for The Coming you're too late.
That event is not unique but continuous,
goodness divided as were loaves and fishes.
These crumbly bits are all that we will get.


Robert M. Chute's book of poetry based on scientific articles, Reading Nature, is available from Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
