with the energy
of the mornings

trace your fingers
along the lull
of the afternoons

in your arms
kiss it deeply

and then
make love
to the tranquility
of the nights.

With white neck peering to the evening clowd.

To neighbouring tree, and leaves the distant crow
While small birds nestle in the edge below.
