A bird alights
(from the forthcoming editions series soon to be published by creative thorp)

Yearning completes the day
And longing lights it
Is fear, then, just a silent moon?
Yes, joy dispels it!
Death soars - a plaintive, poignant song,
Then dreams anoint it,
And on a grey and lichened branch,
A bright, flame-feathered bird alights,
And love is lost and unrequited,
Yet still desire compels it.
