Daffodils

Relentless
He parts
Blushing
daffodils

As he stands
Perched
Over her nest
She is all undone

His crest wide
His soaring
Thick with purpose

Her scent
Captivates
He drinks
The air

She smells
His luminosity
Inside
Of her
As the
Cardinal
Turns
Her
Inside-out

As his feathers
Rush up and
Down her spine



Daffodils are blooming
Everywhere/
upside-down/
all around
In their world


He presses
his love into her
In many ways
Yet to be discovered.


Her nest is all undone
