Fairy Capes and Dandelions
Location
From beneath the dogwood tree
I listened to wind rustling
across housetops
and through daisy fields
till it was over me
singing in my ear
tooting down my throat.
Everything swayed and curved
and billowed ...
fairy capes flew
toward the sky then
sprinkled down freely
salting dandelions and poppies
and dousing me in the process.
Do I love you
or do I love love?
I don't know.
Truly.
But I'll live,
as long as there are fairy capes
and dandelions.
