A Kind of Happiness

Driving back through valleys,
mountains, one after another, slanted squares
of tilled land, hidden villages, isolate, remote,
deserted. For miles of late afternoon, the only car
on the road. A kind of happiness settles,
frightening as new eyes.
          — Sandra Kohler, b. 1940
