Divining Birdsong

27/7/2015

 
Scant breath of wind at sunrise
Salmon clouds and crescent moon
Sky paintings in street puddles

What chant do I have
In this bright temple of morning?

Houses are empty
No chimney smoke
No dogs barking
No voices at all

In this silent non-eternity
I will be forever
Divining birdsong.
