Time in Place







Time in Place


What time have these roads lost?

Two remote paths

Along a distant cottonwood grove; crossed.




Frome where have these beginnings come?

To walk a shelters' long crossway

Where a refuge exists for souls that keep their private drum


And for the flock of migrating questions seeking life's reason;

To sit a moment and set aside all the pains

Into a welling salve upon the scars of treason.


Now the unknown circles in the sky have exposure

As collateral passages must continue

Along their separate ways to closure


From old to new stories

That tell of change; a fresh novel

A new song; a hopeful day's glories!


Where familiar pains

Rest in the hot sun

Waiting for refreshing rains.
