I Wish

I wish I was a tune lent by larks to sparrows
A feathered melody of suns and seasons, not reasons
I could be carried by all, but owned by none

Old Dog
The gentle way he lays his head
The awkward way he jumps in bed
Sliding paws make standing tougher
A tardy meal makes him gruffer
A few less teeth
A few more sighs
But I see love
In cloudy eyes

A Low Heat
All day long
Simmering
Exhaling sweet fables
Of future feasts

Soliloquy
I did not say, “boop”
I said, “whoopsie”
For
My Daisy
These petals
Fell
In even numbers
Like kisses
On a rainbow
Dazzling to the eye
But nothing more
Than wet
Air

Seedling

Carry me in the wind
Carry me in your hair
Let me travel in fragrant comfort
Uncombed
Lost in a hat
I’ll never root
Content to have traveled
Content to be lost
Someday,
Delaying a busy ant
I’ll share my adventures
How for a season
Thanks to a breeze
I traveled with you

Elements

When you are earth, I am wind
When you are wind, I am sea
We are constrained
Separate on each others' edges
When you are fire, I am fire
Together, we are consumed
