Joanne Cornwell



you say the floating circle of light is a hand
and it is as if sea water pauses
or a rose is fully blown
or the rain is pomegranate-clear flowers jangling on thin stems;
rain made from brocade
and this, a bird on a soft branch, moving
feels like all anything ever is
you say the floating circle of light is a hand
