of green woods and bright water

You are pret­ty with birds
on your arms. One day
I will star­tle them and
they will car­ry you into
the sky to see the heart
laid out below and feel
my smile in your hair.

v.2

You are pret­ty with birds
on your arms. One day —
star­tled into
the sky —

A heart laid at
your feet —
a smile in
your hair.
