Poem – VIVALDI IN LOVE (By John Biscello)

Vivaldi in Love (By John Biscello)

Spring.

tender bud

raising gravity

in the center

of a palm.

Summer.

drawn and quartered

shafts of light

mouthing the sea.

Fall.

fetal leaves

curling in on themselves—

inversion

banking on faith.

Winter.

hospitable conjoinment

of bare limbs

relishing arson

and lace.
