I woke hearing a fly
touched again to its sound
pelted into the window
trying to leave
for what was it
– something in sunlight that said
to wake now. Beyond that
pulsed and repulsed buzz
a bird’s one note
come back to the world brought me
out of long sleep. Love,
as you stir from your dream’s
untrembling be still for me,
let me begin
my song for it sings moment
to moment love of you.
