At Once
a summer poem
At Once
A thought collapses
beneath the weight of
bird noise needling
the bedroom walls.
All of this green
breathing shadow
breathes summer
all at once. I
enter a trance
tracing each trace.
Words, where
my mind nests,
return me to heart.
'breathes summer all at once'
Yes!
I woke up this morning to a bird singing outside our bedroom.
