More jewels


The sky has abandoned its burden

and, all around,

gems

tickle the light

with their glazed teardrops.


Branches string captured benevolence;

pirate bounty, newly enslaved,

parades before us.


Liquid jewels in sovereign horde

litter tree and bush

rearranging in passing moments

as breeze and bird

tremble the twigs.
