Indigo Bunting
At the peak of a linden,
the indigo bunting sings.
Oh, how its dark silhouette--
exposed by a single slant of light--
explodes into cerulean shards
of surprise!
How the sky delights in something bluer,
something truer and finer
than the milk-blue of this morning!
And how my heart will fly,
caught up in one brilliant moment!
