TERRA



There is evidence of spring everywhere

A pair of geese, into a headwind / point north

The shed door shuts easier now

Rain water comes to the meadows

Planks are thrown down

FINDING OPEN WATER



There are these things

That make lovely creatures

More lovely —

A red-tailed hawk sweeps

From one moment of the hillside to another

Rising mist will not lose him



3 deer wade into the shoulder of a field

They feel safe in the holler of rain



Then you, rolling up your pants

Before a bicycle ride

Your hair just touching the ground

I tell you I will do something with that

Your smile makes the beginning of all this
