Birdsongs.

twilight wind carries everywhere

birdsongs

trees are hanging from the sky

penetrating these walls

their roots rising from my fingertips

I could have sipped all this dirty water

that was clean before it fell down

sometimes, traveling miles gives nothing

other than vast green fields and no talks

birdsongs die and gold washes away

from the sky.

    I agree with Ingrid… the last lines are perfect, too. Every day the day dies. And reveals something old but new. 💛🌓
