Bower
So far from aloha
but still a greeting
unmistakable from a nearer frond:
scarlet mouths that lisp
almost imperceptibly,
sheltering a verdant word --
about the abundance of rain,
or the plenitude of sun.
Whispering welcome
and pleasantries,
these half-mute trumpets
are gathered about the gate,
declaring the season a success
with gentle gestures,
each one attuned
and infinitely delicate.
