| Daybreak by Laura Stamps Source: The Year of the Cat (2005) p.1 There is a place behind a cat's ear as sweet as summer jasmine, as soft as the satin purse of a mink. I rest my cheek there often, listening to the syrup of birdsong twisting its silver threads through the sky's orchid hair, as buds of sunrise blossom in apricot and tangerine, and I wonder about the flaring water-music of the wood thrush and how many levels of joy my body can bear. ------------------- Editor's rating: Reader's rating: |
