FOLLOW THE WIND
Wind blows
Carries particles
Flying in the air
From place
To place
Lands in vacant
Areas
Builds and builds
Earth is form
Seeds floating
Down
Secure themselves
Within the soil
Form roots, stems, petals
Some with faces
Others with vines
Earth becomes alive
As spring approaches
Flourish in the summer
Dies in the fall
Hibernates in the winter
Cycle of life
From beginning
To end
BOUTONNIERE
A chance to be
Part of a festive
Event
Wedding, Prom
Social occasion
See the world in
A different light
Sitting across a
Dinner table
Watching guest
Communicate
Or moving rhythmically
To music
Maybe bouncing up and down
On a dance floor
Walking in the
Garden
Silently waving
To other flowers
Enjoying the moments
Knowing only a
Limited time
Could live
Being cut
