Branches Baring All

Calligraphic nibs etch meaning in an empty sky, fingernails scratching glass, scribes recording ticks and tocks. Abacus counting season’s syllables, limbs leaking language in a thousand tongues – branches baring all.

Calligraphic nibs

etch meaning in an empty sky,

fingernails scratching glass,

scribes recording ticks and tocks.

Abacus counting season’s syllables,

limbs leaking language

in a thousand tongues –

branches baring all.

      Thanks, Rob! 🙂 (Watch your back with that reach – those branches look pretty scratchy!)
