Dandelions in a Gust – Chrisdene Cloud

I think about you 

and my heart 

grows out 

and  

up 

like fireweed 

in the sun. 

in our  

backyard  

where we 

used to talk 

about the Caymans 

and all your 

summer 

plans.  

Like dandelions 

in a gust 

our souls 

are seeds 

in the wind 

and I will 

find  

you 

planted 

somewhere new.
