the blue farewell

 

the blue farewell

 

still primping in purple
though somewhat
disheveled, suns slip
into latter day clouds
and she sways -- with
her last dance flirtations
to those that still sing
to her branch, awaiting                                                                                                                    farewell as the spring's                                                                                                                    compilation reaches                                                                                                                                    the high notes, wings                                                                                                                                    over waterfalls, their                                                                                                                                  blues to her bough.
