Art by Michael Spengler

I Carry My Roots with Me

I carry my roots with me
I find no ground

Bound,
I remained
If I loosened the bond
I could fly

Through a blossoming landscape
turned brown
in the neighbour’s garden
the grass too

Topsoil stripped away
images still in my mind
I can’t stop   I can’t wait
I fly farther away and

I carry my roots with me
I find no ground
