1002

aubade

where winter was

too hot, too cold

bedded between seasons

till the roof

beyond the walls

the shift is changing

bats pre-dawn flit, birds begin

voices only yet

and they will sing a sun up

by radar just missing

veranda-head me

all minded of windows

for first to see

till the roof

beyond the walls

outlines a little breeze

all their world out of this Zeus head

sprung with shield

tell tunefuly

summer of the coming day

must make own darkness now

till the roof

beyond the walls

my kingdom

and call

in other words

to which I wake

fashion here

for home
