Dust

Blog 268:

Powdery dust flies every which way

And blankets the ground …

Not just any dirty, annoying dust

But grain-like and fragile yellow dust …

It rains in herd on everything it could find

And triggers sniffles and sneezes sometimes

Yet, every piece of that living creature

Travels, embeds, and transplants

Or actively interacts beyond and between its kind …

With a little help from friends above

Those silvery showers from the skies

Sprinkle them with delight

And initiate new growths beneath …

In time … festive greens and rainbow hues

Sprout above the beauty-parched land

To tease and tickle the feet of Lord of the Dance!
