Uncertain flower
planted in other hands
by other heart
What sent you spinning north?
What wind of absence
loosened your roots?
What memory bell rang soft in the distance?
The garden whispers words
of unknowing
Certain ambiguity
Notion without definition
Beginner’s mind walks with beginner’s heart.
Learning to re-know.
Songs of history never sung –
wisdom percolates into the bed
and light shines warm.
It is not as you thought
true words of never-happened
remembrances of history
that could have been
full and rich
become as real as what had been. And more real.
Stone heart softened to flesh
wanders in dreams
carried by the flower.
Will awaken where?
