for Julie, on the occasion of her birthday

perched above you,
he
and
I
see
each moment. Each
reaction to breath. eager
for sun and moon. bloom,
bloom,
into
new poppy.

perched above you,
he
and
I
see
each others moments. Each
wing and breath. honoring
sun and moon,
above our
blooming,
blooming,
poppy.
