Complexity Emergent
By Nancy Kenney Connolly
Paint strikes a glistening
cord across a canvas an arpeggio
of sun-on-Aegean blue
and it’s all about an arc
enfolding someone cradled there an elegy in tangerine
or maybe it’s a lullaby the way a child
begins to see
in cumulus clouds a menagerie
or close harmonies on fire we are given
more
than first imagined this is purple born of blue this
is grief transformed in song.
