"Found" created for the show "Picture This", Norwalk CT, 2019 which matched artists with original poems.

Found,
the fatal chaos of fallen limbs from former hemlock,
so often graced
with cardinal carmine
oceanic jay
dayglow finch
found,
in that dead tangle of splintered wood
lichen shards
blasted branch nodes,
yet, found
here, this morning, at eye level,
fragrance weighting the limb -
honeysuckle,
flowing still
from bumble bee yellow to cloud milk white
where honey waits to be pulled
by children
to the tips
of their egar tongues.
