Trust ...a poem
Poems remind us
that meaning
is not locked in place.
It takes listening
to write, and listening
to read... remembering.
Each word has a history
creating a now with all
that has been
and all that might be.
Context changes
with mood, and the way
light hits the page...
[Do you see the same illustration I do
from King Arthur's court?]
A poem's interpretation is at all times
momentary.
A kaleidoscope capture
of personal experience...
Pebbles moving in a mountain stream
of cold fresh water, pebbles
tumbling into polished
glimmering treasure,
but only for one who
notices and reflects
with human warmth
and connection.
