Today I Watched Blackbirds

Today I watched blackbirds-
Dashing this way and that through the hot summer night.
Intrigued I was by their thin red strips
That blurred with the deep blue sky; their wings in flight.
Lying on my back
My shoulders melting into warm concrete
The grass slippery and cool on the tips my feet
My arms out to the side; supported
Alive and lifted: the blackbirds and me
Drunk on the slight heaviness of dusk and bay breeze.
A song
A melody
My lungs full of its sweetness…
Today I watched blackbirds-
expanding into summer air
sunset and thin red strips
my freedom, tonight
Evening

Dusk-
A deep blue
That takes me into you.
A glimpse-
Of starlight
And mountain tips
Of rose.
