Wishing Well
Suzanne Buffam
Mothers all over the country open cards.
Sometimes a bomb flies by,
sometimes a bird.
Sometimes a black hat lands on the waves
and is mistaken for a man.
It is May Day all May.
It is mayday all day.
The lake looks a lot like the lake.
There are songs about silence
and cameras in the trees.
There are coins enough
in every fountain
to build a fountain out of coins.
