FOUNTAINS AND STATUES AND AMAZED
TOURISTS BETWEEN NOTRE DAME
AND THE ORANGERIE
To have
had the heart of admiration of joy lifted
the way
Apollinaire lifted a poem, the way our gaze lifts
the Eiffel Tower;
the way Paris clearer in sunlight and springtime than
ever before lifts us;
from Pont Neuf you take off, in the Tuileries you see
Marcel Marceau
with a single flower or Monet with a thousand canvases.
Pavlova, how
can you get on your toe that way ? What are you doing
spinning and spinning
and spinning out in the universe and so
close to my heart ?
