The first heron
has flown across my path today,
the tumbling gray clouds
shook the dust of the winter
out of their cloak
and there he flew
like a slow moth
drunk before the flame.
I stood quiet
as he flapped his inching magic,
cutting the cords of cold,
steady as the tailor
slicing steel blades
through light blue silk.
