Morning Poem 040510

Birdsong from the ghosts of birds

woke us lapping the shore

of tired machines

whose deep crawling breaths made me think of mountains.

And the old nest

The tangle of confetti in branches

reaching skyward

seem as slow motion fireworks

stuck fast mid-flight with

all the promise of celebration
