a yard of grace
I dreamt our fenced in leaves formed wings today
Their human arrows aimed necessarily
At dancing laughter
At a worm’s rose fever
It tramples the reminded mother underfoot
What is nostalgia if not for Heaven
Run fast enough
Hope carries you before
While leaping high too
To the western pine unwound
For you, the dirt grows tall
Water and blossom shoots unfurl
Thick for mourning
By what sense is that silence sounded
Being, rocked into an azure bath
Sky bodies in constant motion
Their pressure unsure at their lack of age
Bewildered by the difference between
A bead of broken glass
& a fur tipped seed
A familiar print plant
Throbbing verdant red
Our petal filled dream
