blooming late

flowers that aren’t

supposed to be red

•

•

•

damp at dawn

the tall grasses that

make up the edges

•

•

•

the punctuation

of

doves

•

•

•

a flash of blue wings

swallowed up by

the new leaves

•

•

•

drips from

all the knobs

we need to turn

•

•

•

speckled hens

in the shade of

the blossoming pear

•

•

•

the wet sweatshirt

looks like a pelt

in the gutter

•

•

•

a dove’s feather

stuck in sap

on the branch

•

•

•

the little things

we can still

offer

•

•

•

ring necked dove

we don’t

care anymore

•
