Relationships
for Ishrat on her birthday –
Such comfort in the bee
who between the florets & petals
is seeking her sweet
transluscent drop of almost
honey. Like she was
homed here. Like the face of the sun
flower opened for just this
moment and the bee,
this bee,
heavy from her last
home – oh those pouches
of pollen – twin purses –
& isn’t the richness all the more
sweet in the leaving
the pollen rising / \ falling
\ /
rising
falling
in something like applause
