The Sun Bird

There she is…
Hopping lightly from branches of 
Each tree she rests on.

She is taking the day flippantly
Unworried, gently flipping thru’ the ruffling day
No matter what happens, even when things go

Beyond expectation of sweet bitterness
In dawn sorrow before dusk happiness
Rocketing up to the sky, and finally
Down again to the earth, gently, lightly.

(2013)
