you open my eyes to beauty of wings
the sky is a wonder of light and wings
draw over my sadness with whiteness of snow,
my fears with fluttering of bold black wings
how the rain pours over wild forest-
spring will arrive, blazing, bagful of wings
paint the long summer days with bright orange
& yellow, symmetrical, silky wings
when autumn arrives, give me grace to fall
chest thrumming to wind's spell, breaking my wings
