Concert Repertoire
A miracle always seems so ordinary,
no trumpets blown, heraldic announcements,
a plum appears where a blossom was
on a branch that was dead since before
last Christmas,
through black emptiness, a falling star
blazes for an instant through Ursa Major,
on a walk she slips her hand in yours
and gives her life away,
across a green field, a golden horse
grazes, turning grass into muscle and grace,
an eagle soars, a poem is half remembered,
no trumpets,
wind rustles a symphony of leaves.
