Son Wind

My arms wing out
into my future
and across my past

I am aloft
on my current --
my feathers touch
every event

My fatherhood horizon
dissolves me

I am stationary
grounded between within
and beyond
elevated finally
to relative height

I let my irons cool
wrinkles twinkle
sprinkling meaning onto the age

Five days old
blown into my years
