oasis –
oak tree standing in the pool
of its own shadow
waking to the scent
of moss and bark and damp earth
a dream of rain
thin black branches
against a thick white sky
the moon-white sun
fluttering
bird in the branches
blossom shower
trees in faint outline
the navy-blue moment
of almost night
damp grass
under the trees
a folded rug
