'and then one day'

and then one day

you saw through

the drizzle,the fog-

bound gloom

and what you knew

as huge gray

boulders,unleashed

from the towering

mountain and

pounding down

towards us on

this narrow

path

were really

thousands

of iridescent

hummingbirds

in wild play,

thriving

together  

and falling

deeper

in love with

the sun's

 

sparkling

warmth.
