I:
dandelion seeds,
crack in the sidewalk they meet,
serendipity.
II:
beach towels on car seats,
washing sand off salt-licked feet,
oh, his sun-kissed cheeks.
III:
the wind takes the leaf,
away from her favourite tree,
his roots run too deep.
IV:
earthworms are asleep,
warm hearts shiver separately,
sad eyes and cold screens.
