was it too late
to reinvent
to shed her skin
and start again?

the old birdhouse was stuffed with sticks and feathers
at first glance she thought it was a dried milkweed pod
how fragile
this baby wren
she gently cradled him in her hands
and placed him on a branch
where he had room to spread his tiny wings
and fly home

something about foggy mornings
allows one to ease into the day
I walk a little slower

her days were a struggle between holding on and letting go
