nature art, travel, teaching, parenting, grandparenting husbanding

Though near dark early
he sees the wind
there
in the grass
and would breathe it home—
would draw it by the trees
and the trees are fuzzy
with leaves
squeezing squirming curling out
would coax it by these breathing trees
into a simple room.
