Sprig Gleaning by David R SpellmanAm I so different
that I’ll leave all this
other mess for you,
preferring to see it
grow shoots and twigs
which are meant to be
left alone and who am I
to say otherwise while
choosing to take this
wayward path only
to wander amongst it,
to feel them bloom or
just lay under there with
eager feet, barely aware
that I have walked
yet miles upon miles,
unknown how many
more remain to go
or to wherever their
grass and wildflowers
will sweep me away...
