Footprints in the Windsm # 920

Snowflakes we are
some of us dance
many of us wind-driven
most of us fall—Thud!
some of us fly
all of us can melt

Please pass it on.

The branching branching

The branching branching of the tree
goes up and out and out
reaching reaching for air water and
light, ever more light
without striving without trying
just receiving
thus the tree organizes its living giving
I have heard that bee hives and ant colonies
organize their scouting for food
this self-same way
wasteful O how wastefully
efficient
disorganized organizing!
Life is as it lives
& we are part
essential and small
& we are part

Do we receive another?

Do we receive another
or do we project our picture show?
When first we receive
we begin hearing
the other comes to living
we all do

questions or answers

Better to have some questions than all answers.
