Today I watch the wind

 Today I watch the wind 

Today I watch the wind jostling the long boughs 

ends curled like Christmas trees, Aladdin’s shoes 

ceaseless the fling

this wind is king. 

In fly the birds, claws clinging as they’re swinging 

the hyperactive blue tit, coal tit, acrobatic crew 

out of the blue. 

That glorious glow, backlit, 

impossible to paint, cerulean

silenced to a sough now 

relief and respite

picture window/ window picture 

lovely through the glass.
