Brown Creeper
Pick a bird you’d like to be
Heron, eagle, hummingbird
Daring, large, fast, gaudy,
Or camouflaged,
a small brown forager
spiraling a tree.
Tending to bark and larvae.

can still give a thrill,
skating on top of
shiny beauty.

Fall Fireweed
If you were a fireweed
and your bright
pink petals
had fallen,
Your fluffy seeds
would still
have flights
ahead.

A feather, a foot, a flash of orange,
stirring leaves left on the big madrona,
playing hide-and-seek,
suddenly exotic.
