"THE AGE OF BLOOM"
the evening is busy
growing the garden
the grass works tirelessly
at its quotidian task
only time
seems asleep
silence casts
a long shadow
leaving it to evening
to hurry along a tree’s leaves
and to shade in a sky
with a blue blackness
making a night that fits
together bit by bit
supplying just enough
gravity for an apple to fall
into the lap
of the classical statue
the flowers practice
their colours
like actresses
waiting in the wings
the stars craok
every frog - a ventriloquist
the white statue laughs
unashamed of its ******
as are the lovers
