a daydream, or a proposal

i want to spin in a field of yellow dandelions and tall grass and bare feet.

my hair will fly
your laugh will echo
she will cover her giggle with her hand
he will nod to the rhythms in his head

i want to fall onto the ground in exhaustion.

we'll breathe shallow breaths through our smiles
the earth will hold us with infinite love
the grass will tickle our feet
the sun will sting the sweat on our faces

and when we go to sleep that night, we'll grin at the day we've had.
oh, what a day it will have been.

(we miss your laugh, EWW)
