Earth Breath
Warmth morning found me dancing
prancing
through the even rotting moss.
Sky thickquickening cloud and tocome rain.
High&skyway pouring
sound down
from still
bare trees.
But to find me now:
Ah, they would have if could
to chase me in the life beneath the swallowing cliffs,
scrumbling down the damp dirt slope and
rock to fallen tree along curving
quick(clear)ly running stream
past silver glow of cans and
shinely green wine bottles
with the single leaf that earth
breath picked kicked
down to greet me.

Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks! This is what happens when I spend the day reading cummings and Ferlinghetti.

I like the sounds, word plays
dramatic mood, the personality
of
“to find me now”
& “picked/kicked/down to greet me”
