California Notebooks, 2014

Posted on September 18, 2014 by anna mosca

*
it is a revelation
not one cicada
sounds the same

a butterfly sitting
by me admiring
something I lose

myself on such lightness
I use to tell children
to stop and to listen to

the songs of
butterflies as
they nodded back

This almost has the feel of a Japanese poem, a haiku nature poem. I like this very much.
