Poem: Pine Needles & Tree

 

Pine Needles & Tree

 

firecrackers in constellations,

quiet yet always popping,

mobile that always explodes.

 

emerald sparks 

plummet plummet plummet 

descending into streamers 

streaming in the aggregate--

and yet suspended in upside-down puffs!

how they burst to feather a winged pyramid:

a ruffled coniferous heavenward bird,

see how it journeys, glisten-swarmed,

solar and celebratory,

uplifted by gusts.
