I hear Iris grow

slowly slowly pushing through

early morning tumble shower

 

brings forth  purple flower.

 

I watch birds go, back & forth

peaked beak nest build

flying light intuitive eternity.

 

You, I threw hands up

gave up froth @ window

night jar’s heresy.

 

Yes, I erased the line

from now smooth palm

the laughter & the tears

 

your sense of senselessness.

 

Now I watch the sky turn

from dawn red to dusk velvet

cocooned in earth’s solid splendour

 

I’ve become elemental.
