Mining for the Sun


perhaps a geological survey
or trawling the internet
or other senses unproven
intuitive
guides at any rate
somewhere
but do make a start
see what is there
echoing
fragments
moments
no longer sensible
yet here and there
tied somehow
linked maybe
a story here and image there
clouds threaded
dreamy sequences
in which you once played a part
revisit
secretly catch a glimpse
taste a little memory
rich sauce
tools of time and memory
boxes filled with musty smells
dried leaves of hopeful uncertainties
trapped in the early morning rises
of dedication to life

I wish I could just say something
like "The Archaeology of Water".
