A poem by Marion Atmo
There comes a time on the journey to love
when you no longer know what or how.
What used to be gold has gone up in smoke –
nothing is certain now.
The face and the name don’t go together
and the sea doesn’t quite meet the shore –
and you’re wondering, wondering
whatever you came here for.
All that is past is part of the soil,
the future will come on a breeze.
Sway like a tree
so perfectly still
no questions
what, why
or how.
