Denny, Poet-Gardener

This Spring you are taking on the role of Poet-Gardener, Tending my soil with Hope, Weeding out delusions, Aerating my awareness, Teaching life beyond the suffocation of Mammon's press.

Your mention of festive bird, Meld with my hearing of festive birds, Who dust and the dogwood tree outside my perch, As I read about the parallels of Jesus and Orpheus, And ponder how I might extend the study of Myth, To an ontology of Music.

Thinking man's long route, To bird-song!
