SUNDAY POEM

MEDITATIONS FROM THE CENTER: 5

In the center of my ribs, a silver salmon
leaps

In the center of my ribs, a rock of granite
from earth to heaven

In the shelter of an oak a red-winged
blackbird
nests

In a viridian
pond, mallards teach
their ducklings to swim

In the center of my ribs, an infant
breathes

an angel
with hair of green willow
in the center of my ribs
