Falling in the dead night

through the cold, fretful sky
Destination unknown

But not alone

Joined by thousands of others,
We swirl through clouds.
speeding up,

And
         slowing
                           down.
Finally,
breaking through the clouds,
Rushing to the earth
Picked up by the bitter wind,
Then thrust back down again.

I hit the cold white ground
with a soft whisper
This will be my home.
