for Miss Jane's birthday
Inking the fingers
dialect and echo
Blue Butcher of tongue
peeled from its industry
from roof of mouth
to reluctant curls
turned slightly left, new
implication in Orchis
sepal to petal
cupped calyx, funnelled
modified into a lip

Is the persona here a bee?
or a butterfly?
whatever
it tastes like no other tea
just buzzing
:-)
I am all this, I think. Thank You for the lovely tribute.

Oh that build to the last line. Brava.
Came from Miss Jane's, and a Happy Birthday belatedly to her. What a nice, lasting tribute this lovely poem is.
