Anne Kellas: Poems from Mt Moono

Also see Showcase of Tasmanian Poetry

 


Following Icarus

The morning sun shone.
She polished it daily
and put it out to dry.

By midday she was ready
her petals just
crisp enough to fly.

Her form refined enough
her attunement
exact.

By evening she had learnt
how to cry.

(In  collection, ‘Poems from Mt Moono’, Hippogriffe Press, 1989.)
