I Am

I am the soft hoots
of an owl's
midday dream.

I am the sigh
of the worm sliding
down the robin's throat.

I am the sun in your voice
as you whisper
good morning.

I am the curling light
of dawn smoking
itself as dreams.

I am the flea in a forest
of puppy fur in love
with the music of barks.
