A butterfly sips -
After darkness has fallen
I miss the shadows.

Flying ant day dawns:
The glut is unheralded,
Swifts still sleep aloft.

Christmas blossom fades:
A newborn daughter cries out
As it falls to earth.

I, too, am fragile –
If you throw me to the ground
The leaves will scatter.

Mice nest amidst wheat.
Harvest machines reap and thresh
until daylight fades.
