Inexplicably

???????????????????????????????

Inexplicably,
In that large gray canyon
A small, summerlit sound filled the air
Like the scent of lilacs
In Springtime

Inexplicably,
All the jewels of childhood,
All the string and willow whips,
Lay before me, and
All my aching heart sang along

In the unscrubbed mirror: Stork I

There is a heaven where
Storks clean their wings
And keep the earth
Clear of all that crawls
And stings

The light there
Is unbearably true
