Eons
little bird above us,
preaching high to skies
and outside noise.
sweet leaf upon a puddle,
how you drift above the horizon. tipped
on the balance of a drain in the sidewalk,
or a storm yet this world shall cradle
you in its airy arms.
stick in the dirt, lost in dim forest.
you are used as a wishing rod, a crown
tangled with laughter in someone’s hair.
even the ground shall praise you with
its bugs. as they tear you apart in ribbons,
calling, beautiful. your body
is taken up for light, and passes beloved
stars and Milky Ways. even in the absence of this
earth, life shall find a way to love you.
