negotiation green
Posted on September 7, 2023 by Mary E. Croy
You are nested in a tree with imperfection that shines in the meeting space between green and red. Cradlebranch light is below, sister leaves in light and shadow. Green sisters are above, taking on thoughts of ripening. They poke at the sky, wondering how blue argues with root. How strong is that branch which carries you? No signs of breaking, but a polar cap of black at your center, parsing the juice, conversing with crisp fruit. In procession behind you, other thinkpink sisters learn lessons from you. How do your seeds feel?
In times of lilacs
Overhead compartment flows
Ripening fruit waits
