Thick, in a sequence of days
standing bare, hovering over
the frail and the tenderhearted,
bruised by the storms in the tally
of seasons. May the laying of hands
glide both over and under the free
and the rooted ones, soothing
even the most violated of branches
while the colorful, join wings
in the procession, flying off,
traceless, beyond the outlines
of meadow and morning;

a triology gathers, shedding
a groundful of feather and petal
in the haze of farewell, along
with a diary, long in your letters
of love, changed direction.

you always write so cool

Michelle, it is so good to read
you again. You are such a great poet.
I love the new pic, too!
