That secret bird
Chirpers
The eternal truth
On the old pine tree
Pleading innocence
In those round eyes
That longs for the full-moon
The thin sunlight
The thick chills
Another year is gone
Cloud after cloud
The water frees from the ice
Into a stream, she then smiles
Sunrise rises to awake
Breaking from the reeds
The stream’s now dripping red
With a spring in her step
Ducks quack on the lake
They see clouds in the water

The idea of pleading innocence strikes me as exquisitely beautiful and vulnerable. Lovely piece.

Sinister truths revealed in nature, well hidden!
