Good Morning !

Cambridge, Massachusetts
 
Our old maple tree,
 with leafless branches stretching into the skies,
   and a hole in the trunk.

Where raccoons love to spend their sleeping hours.
This morning,
  on the balcony, and there you are,
   looking at me from the above.

  I wonder...

Does she know me well enough to be at peace with my eyes ? 

Good Morning !
