Pants
I imagine myself a builder of rich
earthy landscape memorials
While raking leaves in the garden this day.
Sprayed with a million tears, my garden
offers a safe place
Where I tend to stories,
memories, pictures,
reminders
Woven somewhere inside of me.
I keep returning home, at times
To unexpected anger and then some new glory
behind it all, traveling through wishes
to every dearly remembered moment,
This legacy of you.
