honey bees sip lavender and basil blossoms birds chittering scatters across thoroughfares friends show up out of the blue at a café her waist length silky black hair split in 3 and braided lovers damp bodies unite scientific discoveries unfold mysteries newborn drinks from mother’s breast a symphony plays lyrics are strung into songs cars stop at an intersection a traveler approaches a fork in the road walks through a mine field explosion holding her as she takes her final breath meteors shoot across night sky planets die and are born
