The Fawn
In the wooded chapel, crab apple
arms crooked and clasped
you held a fawn trembling
beneath the fruited arch
your face delicate
a drawing of joy
apple blush in the bramble
summer air drenched
deciduous giants draped
over the doe-eyed ravine
their leaves hiding
the careful forest
culling—you recognized
a mirror and held it
the creek below babbling black
your name and the year etched
into hickory, a tiny heart
wild against your jacket.
