Lifted

lifted my words just barely dried a poem appears in Spring draws breath from a widow close at hand, open to new worlds across the land. gently are these bon mot teased into the silken air escape capture on white sheets fly to the magnolia in full bloom. birdlike they preen, cavort as do all new things in Spring.

After looking up "bon mot" it makes more sense! I really love your style of writing, Patricia.
