Laughter

We are light
as dandelion
parachutes we land anywhere
take the shape of whereever we fall
we are often the size of
grasshoppers in a jungle of grass
or we’re squirmy chains of willow catkins
then we become curly seashells knobby little
swimmers ina sea of air lying
on our backs our eyes fly up higher than kites
airplanes clouds winds higher than star and we stare plown
at the little distant world and we laugh laugh laugh
