The wind in the trees wakes you,

crossing and uncrossing hands

against the wall.

In the corner the spider weaves in darkness

diligently perfecting his

only means of expression.

He’s clinging to it with his life

knowing the slightest breeze

might blow it all away.

As David says, fragility comes across here and a sort of delicacy I feel which is the lightness of being in your poems.
It intrigues me that you specify the time so precisely, it gives the reader a sense of the immediate, as if time itself is fragile.
