thirty-seven years ago today
a moment
unsought, unexpected
breath swept away
sensing
your heart
recognition’s engine
ignited—
a flailing bird
caught in my chest
terrified to open
again
afraid to fail
irresistible
the pull
Oomph! ‘Irresistible the pull’ indeed!
"...flailing bird..." brave bird... Congratulations!
