Saved Valentine

If I look down I see
A lined blind page
If I look up I see
 
Leaves rustle a bird
But there’s this tree between us
And I’m not getting up
 
I’m lifting one arm up to the light
While the other one
Writes this down
 
Sometimes it’s a wave
Sometimes a salute
Or a sign of the saved
 
A bird makes
Flexing one wing
Then the other
