Black- Eyed Susans

I pulled summer
From the air-
Twisting it into
Strange birds,
Braiding each wing,
Nested on a field of
Black-Eyed Susans.

I gathered all
This bird’s
Yellow plumage
And plumped my hair
With a crown
Of linked daisies
Today.

Black- Eyed Susans was written for a Poetry Postcard project in August.
