God, I am a tiny speck on your palm--

Blow me into the soil, just turned today
still damp from children's careless hose spray,
warmed by noonday sun.

When I fall, feeling loam rise,
smelling leaf decay and welcoming
the dark space of becoming,
I think I will find that you are there, too,
and that you are water, sun, and soil,
and I am never without you.
