A January poem for you. I think it's in my collection Bardo*:
Leaf vernacular
How many years did it take
how much rain and bone and sun
how much loss composted into black peat
to make this leaf, just this one new leaf
flickering green in the January ditch?

Wrong book. It's actually All the Missing Names of Love; also available from me or to order from bookshops.
