PRATIK LA ISSUE HIGHLIGHT: LAVINA BLOSSOM's Poem, "After James Wright"

 

LAVINA BLOSSOM

After James Wright

                             based on last lines of Collected Poems

 

Birds fly at dusk

between stars, hiding.

The shore sings

of twisted iron,

creep and drift.

 

A white feather

waves through

the hedge, slips

down quick.

 

The beautiful

white nakedness

of snow.
