you and i still stop
you and i still stop
for the possibilities
of mutant clovers
sometimes – faith, hope, love, luck – caught
growing between every gap

it takes the right sort

of conditions to grow
a leap of
faith – no degree

edge of folklore
and fairytale,

and even when
we have achieved
the desired
articulation for
devotion,
the subtlest
stirring can fumble
the smallest
melodic gesture

every morning, tripping
nervously, two by

canadian geese try
to display the most
common of
courtesies – having
faith in one another
