Against a Buttery Sky (Day 276)


Above the orchard, tall 
trees against a buttery
sky, sating my spirit’s
deep hunger, portending 
umber flanks 
of gourd-round hills,
a pasture dotted 
Heaven, northern dusk 
fog-sheltered need, 
won as we cried for more, 
but by dawn, still and
you should see 
where, small and fragile, 
it lives on in me.
