Congregation

The warble, 
round like the earth and its sky, 
land colors 

of flour-
soft feathers, sits with its peers.
The blue hills,

a sea-tinted 
mountainous shape against Spring's
sun-lit edge

is a harbor
for the winged creatures, amongst
a budding

tree, windy
caress of grass, the sandy 
dirt of foot-

prints. A stream
gushes downwards, its silver drops 
crest into waves,

the multi-
tinctures of the stones under 
the silken

glassiness
are a congregation. The bird
flies away.
