[bodytext] => Such a comfort there is
in knowing that home still exists. Where the attic is filled with my toys and the aspen trees are inscribed with the name of my first love, encircled in a heart. The signature is still white but magnified by the years since my innocence. Where the earth still carries a slight indent on the spot where I dug for buried treasure. All I found were bits of old china, blue, plastic shards and a little, white stone. To me it seemed like time well spent. Where the wood on the window sill is polished dark and smooth. I sat there for hours and stared at the moon, tracing with my finger the pattern of stars thinking of poetry, cute boys and visits from Mars. Where the rock pile remains in the heat of the sun, rose quartz, mica, granite and lime. An amateur geologist once perched on top searching for a precious find. Where the grove of birch trees are marked by my cat two pairs of four slashes, side by side The deeply carved warning, his totem sign. Where the old gourd still swings on its rusty wire dappled by leave-filtered sun A mother and daughter once sat below, two birders in the know, waiting for the wren to return. She always comes home.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
