Dark willows are floating in the room.
Outside the house my Salix Alba is budding
Hidden by the wall.
ELM
Elm branches hang in tension, weighted with downy mouse ears.
Through the blinds gold bars shine on the wall:
Evening.
MAGNOLIA
Magnolia petals float in the chill wind.
The path is fragrant and clouded like the sky.
Is it Spring or Autumn now?

on the pine needles,
each of the slender needles,
a dewdrop rests—
a thousand pearls lie
quivering, yet never fall
