In a book the day
is a glimpse of blue,
In a map the day
gives a pin-point clue.
.
On the tongue the day
is a watermelon of sweet,
In the face the day
is a pool of heat.
.
On the phone the day
is a wave of light,
In the eye the day
shatters like glass in sight.

Why did the day shatter after the refreshing sweet coolness of the water melon on your tongue? Or did the phonecall have something to do with it? Still wondering”-)
