#716 - sumer is icumen in

sumer is icumen in

 

a creek run in the after rain

took a while but now we’re there

 

bright first day of the world!

the singing to me is morning again

 

but never as before

I love an upside down bird

 

many and many the parts

brave light to see what stands

 

green the furling and the creek still flows

each leaf a kind of catching

 

wallaby waiting on my next move

everyone learning to swim for the shade

 

here at home the world will turn

day layered, voices took to flower

 

nothing ever stops healing this place

headful and heartful, lungful of

 

valley because river, river because creek

creek out of puddle, by rain

 

and, tell me, who hasn’t been so shone?

can’t you see?  all we have now is time
