Sooner

 
Passionate grip of anemone
Songbird housed by guilted cage
Playful dyrad carved into crib

Selfish love of candle-flame,
hidden from breeze under bell jar

a dwindling orbit around black hole

Last thrash of the minnow,
Sparrow's silence,
Nature-spirit stilled,
Smoke under glass

A brilliant star sputters out



If only I could have let you go...

Sooner
