I waited for you
You did not come
I watched for you
My eyes grew tired
I fell fast asleep
As I slept
There were dreams
Dancing through my head
Of you
Life and death
You were there
In all my dreams
The buzz of your wings constant
Your gleeful chirp between sips
Of life’s sweet nectar
I awakened from my dreams
There you were at my window
There you were in my heart
It’s all a miracle—
The dreams, life, hummingbirds
