Fugue with a Robin & Dogwood
Just that lone robin preening. That lone robin preening
in the old dogwood's branches.
Just the rust colored chest
of that lone robin preening
in the dogwood's bud-tipped branches.
Those branches
whose buds have just opened. Just the rust colored chest
of that lone robin preening
and the pink of those just-opened buds.
Those buds on the dogwood's old branches, that robin
still preening, those branches
still pink with young blossom.
Just an old dogwood's branches and that lone robin preening.
Just its rust colored chest
in that dogwood's old branches,
those branches so pinked with young blossom.
