Remembrance


re the mourning doves 
throwing their voices 
from somewhere close 

behind me Lorine’s 
memorable you- 
ah-you calling 

your absence obliquely.

  1. AH ! the Eternal 'Ah'
    &
    a nod (bow?) her way:

    *

    Hear
    where her snow-grave is
    the 'You
    ah you'
    of morning doves

    *

    tha's out of her Linnaeus in Lapland.

    Now, 'dig this' a few years ago
    Cid put-together a 4-or five poem
    "run/dialogue" for Laura Winters' "Take Out #5" 'bagazine'

    I think it is on-line somewhere... will see if I can find it
    &
    get back to you after I chase
    Crow
    away from my dove's nest !

  4. Joe (also) picks up this Niedecker "You/ah you" in a piece in his new book

    he titles the poem Rereading "Hear"
    and comes "to hear those
    doves her way: "

    see Thread of the Real (Conundrum Press, 2012)
