11 Ahau
Yellow Spectral Sun
The bluest blue Jay cries
To Ruby-throated Hummingbirds
Whose tiny sunlit scarlet throats
Dance
In grand extravagance –
Otherworldly, truly –
Huge Crows dip low overhead
Searching out Breakfast -- screeching black
Messengers from an Underworld unseen
Guided by the gliding
Flying, dipping, darting
Drumming, thrumming, Hummingbirds –
Symbols of an over-arching Wing
Hints of a Time sublime –
When I too will sing.
