From head tipped wishing
to unplanned ascents to
strolling under, in stern adult
conversation, to shaking knees
with one hand pressed
flat against a riven trunk.
We watch the newest astronauts
of the trees. Climb up star sailors,
scratching knees, dirtying hands,
eyes widening as you reach for
the fragile top. Does the world
look different or joyously, smaller?
