Breathing Together on our Balcony

Coffee steam curls -

white wisps of

cirrus clouds circling our heads


our steeple-high evergreen twins 

     Genevieve and Josephine 

lean gracefully toward us

branches bowing and curtseying,

limber ballerinas spilling

their freshening breath 

fragrant and green

 

as the memory of spring 

to mingle soothingly

with the soft huff and hum

of the

lingering ease

flowing between us

our little sanctuary
