About "Summer Snow"
The story of a hummingbird rescuing a flower from a summer
snow was created in a few days after a hail like snow crushed all our flowers in
the garden. As one hummingbird was still circling around the most beautiful
blossom, I immediately ran to my studio and grabbed my brush to play with my
paints
The Summer Snow
Clouds move for miles
as I draw on
them
with leftover grass By the pond again I will sit
and wait for
someone to pet me
Diving face down
off the cloud
and
leaving each inch of white
I smell the aspen stumps
behind the shedding
birth trees
Jumping from one air atom to another
and
seeing myself
on top of myself
I breathe a different breath
I have
never smelled before
Flipping over the earth pages
I go round and
around
and it takes me forever
to find the white
in any other color
While the wind makes me breathe
I am like a
flashlight in the light day
flashing the blankets
all tangled up into a
braid
draped over fences
When I hum there now by the pond
rescuing the
blossoms from the summer snow
I release a droplet of lukewarm water
stuck
on my eyelids
Suddenly I feel someone petting me. Akiane
