Fringe Tree
Fringe Tree
James Davis May


-- Or Old Man's Beard.
That the names we give recall the thing
is what we want. And yet, both names are boring
when compared to the way it shimmers1 there
like a firework that somehow doesn't fall,
or the way it will fall eventually
from itself, swirling2 its gauzy pollen
in the wind above the lawn
where the children next door run outside in late April,
swearing to their mother that it's snowing.
And even after they know they're wrong,
they squeal3, insisting their mistake
is something to dance through, something
to repeat and repeat again -- not hoping
to make it right, just enjoying what it is
and what it looks like the more they say so.
