On Blondie’s Bridge
Sweet lingering scent of the May
Death and decay
Shadow of a great bird speeds over the water
Transience
Bubbling babble of flow under the bridge
Illusion of impermanence
A staccato burst from the Cuckoo
Illusion of Now
Old man thumbing his phone
Illusion of capturing essence
The Green Dragon peers out from fainting willow
And laughs – sound of Faerie bells on the river bank
Laughing back
