UNDOING
Sitting without time,
Outwith its wild unheard roar.
Moments snowmelt vanishing,
Undoing forgiven, unknowing acquiesced.
Oh, Birds of dawn, the hills are laced with cold.
Blue air placid, blanket weighed.
A roll of mist is daybreak,
A disassembly of constellations.
Sky ceiling lifts and breathes out.
Two ravens sliding sideways blackly.
The simplest lessons hardwon:
To rest without time,
All hungers melted.

“Sky ceiling lifts and breathes out. Two ravens sliding sideways blackly.” A difficult choice for me to make among lyrical lines such as “Moments snowmelt vanishing,” and ” A disassembly of constellations.” Beautiful, Simon.
Thank you, Bonnie!
