HUM, HUM

1.

One summer afternoon I heard

a looming, mysterious hum

high in the air; then came something

like a small planet flying past—

something

not at all interested in me but on its own

way somewhere, all anointed with excitement:

bees, swarming,

not to be held back.

Nothing could hold them back.

2.

Gannets diving.

Black snake wrapped in a tree, our eyes

meeting.

The grass singing

as it sipped up the summer rain.

The owl in the darkness, that good darkness

under the stars.

The child that was myself, that kept running away

to the also running creek,

to colt’s foot and trilliams,

to the effortless prattle of the birds.
