Hummingbird

The Secret GardenAnna’s hum must be a drum
Syllabifying wings she pauses
Asks for a brush of water.

Gusto the loin cat curls
Garnished in the parsley
Paws brown under yellow

Orange marigold sprinkle.
Curling green garlic stalks
Stop hear the red head hum

Oiled garden buzz
Quicken the quiet morn humus
Yeses of soft dry feathers.

Break blossom drift
Brood across rouse salsa
Word warm worm release.
