what’s
all the racket?!
a featherless white crane lifts
things up
to the roof

feathers
everywhere . . .
in mid-autumn the white hen
has started to
molt

one bird’s egg
in another’s nest

within my dream
another dream
dragonflies

rhyming trees with peace
snipping frosted tips
of rosemary and thyme

December solstice—
watching the snowscene settle
on
the mantelpiece

of
honeymoon —

this
autumn road
to ourselves
