April 24 2022

 Where did I come from?

I asked my mother


Sleeping under the stars 

she said

under the canopy of night

at the base of granite precipices 

amidst mountain dogwood 

in the sorrel beneath a sequoia tree


I could see myself 

threaded through the night sky

brought to earth

like landed butterfly

sprouted seed pod

without wings

waiting in the clover to be found
