The White Birch - June

The love you keep:
Wasps and bees
The honey more than
Sweetener to me
Your scars and needs:
Bitter seeds
That made the spring
Complete around me

June, tell me we’re still in deep
Wound, show us how to bleed
June, you can tell
Tomorrow we’II have sun
Scar, you know well
Summer’s pointed gun
Look to the ground
The churning sounds
The turning worms that
Came into me
Look further down
Underground
The frozen soil that
Gave in to me

June, tell me we’re still in deep
Soil, just show us how to brеathe

Still you can feel
The rays on your skin
Still you can hear
Thе worms turn within
June, you can tell
Tomorrow we’II have sun
Still, you know well
Summer’s pointed gun
