Love Poem: Sound, color, animal, weather

for Stephanie

 

Dusk.

The day has all but given up — turns the color of weak coffee.

I’m heading home, too late,

my bicycle tire squeaking like a lost bird,

when a doe shoots from nowhere

into my path.

The air around my heart lifts,

flutters.

This is how love finds us:

some mild evening

unexpected.
