Limb to limb, mouth to mouth / with the bleached grass / silver mist lies upon the back yards / among the outhouses.

The dwarf trees / pirouette awkwardly to it -- / whirling round on one toe; / the big tree smiles and glances / upward!

Tense with suppressed excitement / the fences watch where the ground / has humped an aching shoulder for / the ecstasy.
