Thinking They Are Jewels



the lifespan of a poem
who can hold in their hands
the hummingbird width

the petal's curve on the wind.
my friend my vanished friend
one fragment calls

to the other
over a gulf of centuries
millenia

a child stoops down
to small flowers in the grass
thinking they are jewels
