Archive for the tag “birds”

i am third


i am the bird
resting
alone on a wire
listening to the wind
and waiting
for something to die

i am the wind
blowing from the east
bringing fresh air
to a flower
desperate
for better days

i am the sunrise
on a cloudless morning
burning the sky
with intensity
and promising
life after life



december two thousand eleven
