Buttermilk Sky

A poem a day in April for National Poetry Month

Alex Siale

Particles condense
huddled together
yearning for the sun.
Woven tapestries
drift and fade out of sight
never seen again
on this edge of the horizon.
light warms their bones
and their glisten grows hollow…
like the last smidgen in a jar of mayo.
