Poems are much like cottonwood seeds, Filling the air as they float in the breeze. We hope our efforts find fertile soil And our seeds take root, rewarding our toil. Exposed and vulnerable, they may never land Or they may be clutched in a grateful hand. We send them by faith, our deepest expressions Hoping they land and yield fruitful impressions. Keep sowing your seed, write on lovely poets! You may plant a cottonwood, mighty and stoic!
