in the meadow magenta by Cynthia Hogue    (reading Robert Duncan in Haldon Forest)     bloom looks like lupine from afar but up close the small bell- like flowers of wild hollyhock           the holy that forth         came that must   come mystery of frond fern gorse a magic to which I            relate to          land of hillock and   bolder the grayer sky and wood the straight flat One between them barred            by the bushy Scots pine          medicinal veridian of ever-   green which though gossip rumor spell or chance change us is not changed Copyright © 2013 by Cynthia Hogue.
