I could have been blue

I could have been you
On that walnut limb
At the center of the world.

I want you to wait
For my camera
I want your image
And to speak your name
As if by saying, “Indigo Bunting”
I could become you

And now with camera in hand
I look at empty air
Above the branch
Where you were

Beyond the grey-brown perch
Behind the green leaves
The sky is bluer now
From having held you
