Evening Window in May
/Lucie McKee
As my hand
rests on the
apple branch
my hair
blossoms.
Author’s note: I write at a table near windows overlooking a crabapple tree. In the evening
when the light is right, sometimes I see my face superimposed on the tree in the window glass, and I find this quite eerie in a delightful way.
