Bamboo Back Scratcher. (Part IVX)
Memory
the day I spent walking.
Trees everywhere were so lively
in their sacred stillness.
I remember the dead leaves
as if my own hand.
My footprint
matched that of snowflakes
to rain.
In some ways
the river bent around me
I around the river.
But I was no leaf
no leaf to sail home
no leaf to sea.
And you were there
you are always there.
And when the sun opened
you were a hello
to my warming face.
My whiskers
were icicles melting in joy
as you cleaned me.
In some ways
the river bent around me
I around the river.
But I was no leaf.
no leaf to sail home
no leaf to sea.
