Freely released


From the sheltering pod,


Opened toward the sun,


My children wafted away


Like milkweed parachutes on an autumn breeze,


Bearing seeds of their own to sow and nurture


In another part of the good green earth,


Where dreams grow on stout stalks


Firmly rooted in the same ancestral soil


That nourishes me now


With the comforting truth


That all is well.
