Outstretched

How would the tree atop the church
both stretch and live as one-
The wings of wood to call us death
take bulb upon the sun?

Petals, every one
to beat the fronds into an ice,
Where dance we may, a petal each
our moments into day?

To arm ourselves upon the grass,
to sprout into a wood--
In nova fert animus
the shapes end day as should.
