like cool crisp crimson
leaves flying off the trees on
an autumn day. Like downy
feathers in the robin's nest
circling the wind off their
baby's speckled brown
breast. Like fluff from
the cottonwood tree snowing
down, dropping its seeds. Scatter
you fluffballs into the air. Gallop
like a strong-willed mare. Dance
like a kite floating in a cornflower
sky, over the roof tops and
waving goodbye. Like a dozen
balloons untethered with glee, drifting
in the clouds waggling like a bee.
