for wendy...

With windows down
I stick my face outside
to be flitted by the wind.

My hair trails behind me,
and I let one or two be stolen

so that a piece of me will fly away
to places I've never dreamed of,
and there I will be where I cannot. 



(there!)

Melanie, I hope you can believe that what you may think is "not very good" is in fact, good. If it is true, and honest and from you, it is always good. I love you and your writing.
