Feathered Fancy

Brady Bowen 1973 (Louisiana)

Let’s fly now
let’s take wing
over air
and low things

Tarry not
let’s away
quickly now
breathe sun’s rays

Feel the wind
bracing cold
Up up up
ere we’re old

Knifing through
cotton white
other worlds
brilliant-bright

Hand in hand
spiral down
to the eerie
we have found

There to drink
our fill of
each other
quiet love
