The Wind
the blades
of grass
clean shaven
down the stretch
after the rain
the black bird struts
his stuff
the squirrels race
to the top
turtles are sunning
on the bank
minnows moving
in the pond
a butterfly remembers
when
it had no wings
and wastes no time
resting on flowers
as if it knows
the wind will take it
wherever it goes
