Click hereThe maple seed that limps
down from the sky on
its one desiccated
and hard-veined wing
battered insect of the spring;
the common dandelion
holding listlessly
its hundred spiderlings
with silken hair
and white, orphans soon of air;
the windfall apple's hard
drop and curl along
her bias, and the smooth
red haunch turned up
as if to say, come and sup;
here is the crisis of
ingenuity
and chance, the pilgrimage
to dirt among
the next year's poems, unsprung.
Nicely structured with enough variation to produce a wonderful sound in my mind. Images woven together nicely too.
