Artist Info:
- Under a cherry tree<br />
I found a robin's egg,<br />
broken, but not shattered.<br />
<br />
I had been thinking of you,<br />
and was kneeling in the grass<br />
among fallen blossoms<br />
<br />
when I saw it: a blue scrap,<br />
a delicate toy, as light<br />
as confetti.<br />
<br />
It didn't seem real,<br />
but nature will do such things<br />
from time to time.<br />
<br />
I looked inside:<br />
it was glistening, hollow,<br />
a perfect shell<br />
<br />
except for the missing crown,<br />
which made it possible<br />
to look inside.<br />
<br />
What had been there<br />
is gone now<br />
and lives in my heart<br />
<br />
where, periodically,<br />
it opens up its wings,<br />
tearing me apart. - Avg. rating:
