Skylark
Skylark I sail with you as the morning
breaks the sky and sun cuts through
like dancing diamonds cruising
the aqua sea.
Axis on a wheel of lonely flight
I offer you these hours of dark
nights for those whose lives are solitary
too. Beethoven I turn up on the patio,
higher and higher for you to hear the
magnificence.
But you advance to dive and catch
a beetle or a sticky fly. You prefer
to offer them to your female while
ignoring this striking opus.
