Winged Regality

Somehow, she holds
a delicate balance in the air.
Not graceful—
she tips as if filled
with sloshing, sweet water—
but she stays above the dirt
until she's found her niche
in a colorful shoot that blooms
for her.
Still someday it will find itself
as a part of the honey-like soil
that breeds the air
of her flicker.
