Findings and Leavings

in things that drop from the sky

are tears that drip from my eyes

and dapples of sunlight and moonshine

feathering tired heartstrings of mine

 

in things that rise from the earth

burst flowers singing rebirth

alongside pungent eau de decay

fermenting, overwrought, from dismay

 

in things that rides on the waves

soars hope that my soul saves

scouring away, with salted tenacity

shame swamp that buried me
