We who with songs beguile your pilgrimage / And swear that Beauty lives though lilies die, / We Poets of the proud old lineage / Who sing to find your hearts, we know not why ... (James Elroy Flecker)

little movement … near silence …

some melodic bird song …

a fly comes and goes … 


I imagine 

the temperature of the sun,

the feel of that light breeze

in my hair

This is a textu (160 characters including title and spaces) and also a found poem / erasure poem. My brother Denis posted a video on his facebook page of leaves moving. (See, above, the still screenshot.) The first verse of this is taken from his words about it; the second from my comment on it.


I'm sharing this with Open Link Night #395 at dVerse, where the optional mini-prompt is letter writing, including modern digital equivalents – posts and comments on facebook being one form of the latter.
