wind and sky

if i were the wind and you a leaf,
where would i take you?
what secrets would i whisper 
as you scutter along,
resting only until my next breath?

if i were the dream and you the sleeper,
would you remember me in morning's light and smile,
or will i be the tear drying upon your pillow?

i am wind and sky, dream and song,
you re the leaf time moves along.
dream through the night of windswept days,
dream of the moments time passes away.
