Pollys Tree

 A dream tree, Polly's tree:
 a thicket of sticks,
 each speckled twig

ending in a thin-paned
 leaf unlike any
 other on it

or in a ghost flower
 flat as paper and
 of a color

vaporish as frost-breath,
 more finical than
 any silk fan

the Chinese ladies use
 to stir robin's egg
 air.
The silver- haired seed of the milkweed comes to roost there, frail as the halo rayed round a candle flame, a will-o'-the-wisp nimbus, or puff of cloud-stuff, tipping her ***** candelabrum.
Palely lit by snuff-ruffed dandelions, white daisy wheels and a tiger faced pansy, it glows.
O it's no family tree, Polly's tree, nor a tree of heaven, though it marry quartz-flake, feather and rose.
It sprang from her pillow whole as a cobweb ribbed like a hand, a dream tree.
Polly's tree wears a valentine arc of tear-pearled bleeding hearts on its sleeve and, crowning it, one blue larkspur star.
