Big Yes

A little lizard ran across my desk
In green and turquoise inlay, shimmering.
A jaunty fella, following a seam
Of late afternoon sunshine creeping in.	

Well that was odd, he must have come in through
That gap under the garden door. I'll fix it.
I don’t begrudge him one bit though, my world, 
And his big yes to staying somewhere in it.
