Bemused

[Tiger the Lion]

Bemused
 
when words were day lilies
unfurling each dawn
 
stretching
 
when even stale breath
pushed poetry
 
how you could sing to me
before you were fully awake

not a lot to say except it paints a lovely image. works on more than one level.

my only question is verb tense. the title (to me) is present passive, but the verses are simple past. great images though. love the idea of breath pushing
