Extract
stretching gray
sheet sentinels
of bush
observe
a symphony of rain
wavers
a brook Rachmaninoff’s
the clinch of entropy
listen
Pastels of light
reach canopy
painting nature
With one luminous
golden strand
know
possum
crawling nose
scampers retreat,
as alien scents
reach downwind
become
cockatoo’s
Stark flamingo serenade,
into the pink
disc
wonder
the conjuring
of disrobing life,
its peaceful uproar
savoring
cinnamon specks
waiting future’s call
hope
salt cracks
from my face
at my feet
