From Love

Saturday caterpillars are
climbing trees.

Saturday’s children sing
‘Caterpillar aeroplane.’

Six caterpillars begin
to grow.

In the yellow night
time is climbing &
purple bubbles of song
swing sticks about.

Saturday people
swim cobwebs of
blue people &
blue frogs.

Saturday’s stones know that
old love
forms in the leaves
falling from the trees.

Old women over June
are running free
red over black stones
time is climbing.

Old women over August sing,
‘be that dirt and mud
that grows these green forest trees.’

Butterflies flutter free
through the dragon grass

From Love,
old stones that are scattered
form the foundation
of all that is to come.
