Perfect Morning



A perfect morning to go
nowhere breath by breath
down a woodland path,
letting your feet perform
momentary miracles,
softly as if daubing tears
from your grandmother’s face.
Don’t take steps,
give them.
Remember that the one who
created you broke your wings
so that you could learn
to walk on earth.
How can you thank her?
Crush diamonds
with your whirling.
