She clings to old taverns bloated court jesters and waterfall portraits that flatter her folliage On her leaf crumpled branches O how she shivers but balances moonlight on the toe where she's tipping her solataire limb extends, on its tier the other one's sorrow shedding her seasons in sync, and repenting as the western winds rally growing out past the sidewalks from networks that bind them they are my sisters they are my seers.

Brings images of Autumn in the south and many memories of the wind tossing spanish moss around as if the trees themselves were swinging their hair to get attention. Lovely write. |
