Annunciation
Robin1 Robertson
       after Fra Angelico
 
 
He has come from the garden, leaving 
 no shadow, no footprint in the dew: 
 They hold each other's gaze2 at the point 
 of balance: everything streaming 
 towards this moment, streaming away. 
 
A word will set the seed 
 of life and death, 
 the over-shadowing of this girl 
 by a feathered dark. 
 But not yet: not quite yet. 
 
How will she remember the silence 
 of that endless moment? 
 Or the end, when it all began --
 the first of seven joys 
 before the seven sorrows? 
 
She will remember the aftersong 
 because she is only human. 
 One day 
 she'll wake with wings, or wake 
 and find them gone.
