Day 8: Clarity

Driving down a county route whose name is spelled two ways,
 I glance off to the left      just     as
the morning sunshine  s c a t t e r s 
into beams         between          the  pines,

     and   I   can
           see
      the   air

--a vision I am sure is not allowed.

   It twinkles soft and smooth
 light as a honeycomb
here-not-here
    the breathable air
     gilded, taking space
  rushing past and
gone.

I will never see that miniscule eternity again.

Why am I laughing?
