The title of this piece is “Lilac’s Locus” but PoetrySoup will not allow apostrophes in the titling.

I am, somewhat surprisingly (to me, anyway) beginning a series of poetry-written-when-I-hear-the-geese-throughout-my-day.

Lilac’s Locus Clouds in contrast, as night fades... Hidden in the shadow-dark, underfoot - astride the windblown crinkle-leaf of a season ago, a violaceous crocus begins to dream of the end of the dream- time and the skybowl (soon!) of light. Cut through the indigo, a black-fletched line; one single goose. Now two.
