A-Z Challenge: K

click on image for more A-Z  K is for KosovoA Woman Dreams in Kosovo  All night the muddy rocksalong the edges of the encampmentturned to swallows.They dusted the long roadback to my villagewith their wings.Carrying branches in their beaks,they built a nest under the eaves of my house.As I watched from the kitchen window,my man came up from the fieldshis sturdy bodyas yet unbroken.Our children fluttered around him.And in the honey of his gazewas everythingI had lost.
