transformed upon a branch in April

To 

fall 

beyond the ground

of what is before me 

chair dog sofa tv window red bud 

tree 

      with sparrow alighting what 

as if an afterthought on its way to nest oh! look there! my heart rises rises 

alighting  

so beside those

feathers 

becoming crystalline to yesterday's despair 

by 

reason 

of 

love
