Last night Bill brought home
a small blue ceramic bird
to sit atop
the jade-green milk-glass cake-plate
he gave me for valentine’s day
I’d been saying a little bird
would be just the thing
to go right there
and truly it is
He got it for a dollar
at the strange civic center craft-fair
It is walnut-sized
and sort of plump
with sky-blue plumage
and a quizzical eye
Perfection
