again, for HCA
hiding under a strawberry leaf
if only it were possible
perhaps you thought, thumbelina
before the sparrow appeared
and then Spring
who knows in a crisis what is near
to shield you from the terrible storm
of only one raindrop
only one tear
sometimes you want to be
enclouded, drifting away
perhaps, in the music about snow
or preludes.
stay.
a little while and the clouds will clear.
singing will be possible
again.
couched in a golden flower.
in the radiant hours.
