Eternal
The owl came last night
it’s never been before
the sliver of the
waning moon
hung right
above my doorthe moss had grown
beneath the rock
you once stood onthe gurgling creek
still moved along
the course it always knewthe dragonfly
suspended
in the skythe sun would set
the sun would risethe traffic weaved
the buildings stood
the people moved
unawarethe ripple of you
gone back into
the universe
the particle and
the waveI sipped my coffee
closed my eyes
inhaled my memories
and found you in eternity.
