recall.

' hummingbird'

suppose i say summer,
write the word 'hummingbird',
put it in an envelope,
take it down the hill
to the box. when you open
my letter you will recall

those days and how much,
just how much i love you

-raymond carver


i saw this lovely polaroid, which took me to this poem. I am so glad i found it. I have a thing for hummingbirds, they were a "sign" to me at this time in my life.

But it's also how I'm feeling today. I want to fly away.
