being an extraordinary effect or event in the physical world
that surpasses all known human or natural powers
¡mira!
clay shaped and baked into flowerpots
flavors of basil, mint, oregano
symmetry of the cat's markings
silent din of dawn
but also
engineering of a glossy magazine
interlock of Lego bricks
and look--¡mira!
closure technologies: button, zipper, snap
scrubbable, self-healing, waterproof skin
kudzu canyons stretching for miles
traffic flowing easily, ever
and what about
babies, born to laugh
ready shower of hot water
¡mira!
clean sweetness of Cheerios, blueberries, milk
daily delivery of mail
"all known human and natural powers,"
every one, and
every one a miracle
