Spruce grove

This entry is part 55 of 91 in the series Toward Noon: 3verses

 

A brown-striped breast feather
floats down from a high bough
in the spruce grove

where some hawk or owl
plucked a grouse. The outermost
trees rock in the wind.

I step carefully as a bridegroom
over each raised
threshold of root.
