Missing Valentine

If after forty years
sitting in this chair
watching grass and
sky and wall between
and then going right
to left a bird flies by
and then later another
going north to south
or south to north
as the case may be
on any particular day
and I still see it
as a message for me
I still take it personally
and leap thinking
to go with it then yes
there may be something
irretrievable in me
something missing
struggling to return
