Landing Here - Margaret Noodin

[Lawrence Robinson]

Landing Here


When it stops snowing in winter and deep cold arrives to crack the ice

We stop hearing the freezing then listen for the great horned owls

They forgive one another and begin to mate while the world is frozen

Landing on pine branches as snow falls gently in large flakes

Eventually she lays an egg then ignores the world until it breaks
