Poem: Wild

Wild

Wild, the sky says “dance”
and the clouds obey.

My hands are birds, posing
in the trees, accompanying.

  4. A couple days ago I laid down on the beach and stared straight up at the sky, just like a little kid (our skies here are SO dramatic).

  6. Thanks, erin. We can move in and around each other while one thing dances and another waits, or we can all dance together. Wild and free.
