~ As Things Are and Remembering ~

~

A nettle and raspberry
place their leaves in a 
heart~shaped portal outside 
our bedroom window.

The starlings have returned;
their dark, glittery silhouettes 
replacing the fallen leaves
as they convene in loud, chattering
verboseness among the sleeping
branches of Ash.

The rain continues; 
clouds crying as they
witness the abuse of
Earth.

The sun shines through;
a hopeful ray
::
::
::
remembering.

There are rainbows in our living room,
from a wedding~bell crystal.
