That perches in the soul,

And sings the tune--without the words,

And never stops at all.   (Emily Dickinson)

For he camels his back to bear the first notion of business. (Christopher Smart)

what's a poem?

taking its time    (Robert Peters)

Patience is
wider than one
once envisioned,
with ribbons
of rivers
and distant

tasks undertaken
and finished
with modest 
relish by
natives in their 
native dress... (Kay Ryan)
