Where Shade Once Was
Where shade once was, the oak tree in a sprawl Of death no longer writhing against the wind. The people say:'I see now. It was tall.'
And here and there slight nests of spring now find Themselves dependent on a severed height. The people say: 'I see now. It was kind.'
The people praise. The people cut. Twilight comes and they haul their loads off. Through mid-air a cry... A blackcap crying out in flight,
Seeking a nest that is no longer there.
