scoured by yammering brook

Time
it comes in, measured beats
in sync with mystic rhythms
how it proceeds

Old Friends
linking eyes
vocal explosions of joy
all focus folds
into singular embrace
speaking all

“how’ve you been”
“I’ve missed you”
from afar
heart warming humanity

what secret in repose
structures robustly delicate
layered in emerald
steeled connection
transverse waters deep
up there, the top
crashing, hammering
of swift, rubberized hoofs
day and night and day

a mountain’s flank
an intruder I be
so quickly I sight
my query, pray
