a girl who pulls long quilled feathers
out of her wing,
listens to her pulse
as it quickens
like rain drops
on an old barn roof.
She nudges…
through long lost pages
of fenced in things,
pokes Past with the tip of her quill
and watches for signs of truth.
She listens…
for the crackle crack pulling
of yellowing photos-
for tales of nestling poems
tapping on her window pain,
She tucks…
her quills into her wing,
opens her window and soars
with sunlit word-kissed birds
She is a girl who flys…
…with poetry….
That’s beautiful, but poignant. ❤
