Where Blue Roosts

Deep Woods by C. Grimes ($30)

Where blue roosts at midnight

I roam leaves and climb limbs

star stained with wishes.

Alone casts its shadow across

my arms as it sighs its song of solitude.

Every worry knotted hour I carried

in daylight surrenders to the peace

of moonlight prayers.

The nightingale calls from the

weightless realm of dreams.
