I hurl these words up
into the prevailing wind
to see if they can fly.
They are carried away
across the fresh green lawn
to the margin of the woods,
then drift between the blossoms
of a Flowering Dogwood; where
some words settle on the petals.
The remainder fall to earth,
muffled on a carpet of moss,
gratified by this brief flight.
