aequam servare mentem ... a poem by Maggie Kirton


aequam servare mentem 

twisted strands

a taste of spit

a single blue egg

in the center of it 

mother sits tranquil

her beating heart sings

to her child in the egg

about wind and its wings 

the warmth of her feathers

genesis stirred

aequam servare mentem

the birth of a bird
