Are you there

naturecitymusictimelove

Are you there

Disguised in the ripple

Of an Oak tree

In the flutter of a hummingbird

Barely moving in the air

Invisible wings

Beak filled with nectar

The startled

Bright eyed look

Of a fox

Caught in the porch light

A candid sight

Half in half out

Of a dustbin

An opportunist thief

Are you there

In the veins of a leaf

Rich in chlorophyll

A vase on a window sill

The grace

Of a stallion

Floating on air

At full gallop

Impressing a mare

An old married couple

Arm in arm

She fell for his charm

It is still there

When lovers collide

There is union

If I use my eyes

For more than I see

Will love break free
