Summary: Drabble. Giles/Oz-ish.
Notes: Oz would write haikus. So I started thinking of them, and this one took several tries, I have to tell you - kept being one syllable too long. And you don't even want to know about trying to fit a drabble to it.

After practicing, Oz is strangely agitated, sitting with his guitar still resting in his lap, neglected in favour of a notebook and a pen tapping uselessly. Giles notices, of course, and doesn't comment.

Later, Giles finds a ragged piece of paper set neatly on that same chair. The handwriting is unfamiliar but distinctive, and the form apt.

No-one has ever written poetry for Giles before. He tucks it safely inside the back cover of his diary, and looks at it every day, though he memorized it at first reading.
