april snow

Standard

Clouds
Jared Carter
I would like to rise within one
as though unbound –
Bodiless, but not withdrawn from
the endless round

Of circumambient winds. I would
be vaporous, yet
Show textures clear, as in driftwood
or empty net.

My shadow, far below, would seem
content to go
Across the green fields like a dream
of April snow.
