Smoke Rings
G. Higgins ... 07.19.03

Smoke rings lingering
Slowly rising on the air
Refracting light
From ethereal space
Hovering and spreading
Growing larger
Then dissipating to what
Was there before they came
A ripple in the air
As a ripple in the pond
Affecting all
And nothing
In it's Transcendence
I blew a ring of smoke
And watched it float a way
The only proof of it's passing
Was the spinning in my head
