Of A Sudden

Original DDE™ art: “Western Tanager” — by: rob kistner © 3/9/26

—-<§>—-

the breeze speaks first
then the birch answers
with a gentle wave of branches

suddenly
a restless Tanager lifts
taking flight
as if the sky had called its name

I remain below
feet rooted in gravity
studying the freedom
of that brief upward decision
