Remembering the Present
Remembrance of things present
Forgo to the east the beginning and the rise
Looming over horizon with wanting eye
Yearning to reach the west
Before the step has been placed in quest
Behind the hills and crested hollow
The silent bird blissfully wallows
In his perch from ears sewn to close
He is free of thorns but still a rose
Hide him from pry and look
Not taking the sound that could be took
Ruffle his feathers in the breeze
Longing after whispers tease
Soon he part but not yet
The plan is laid the plot set
To open his bosom to the lift
To take length and the shift
Though it seems the air is frost
Seep in ground desire lost
Tried he to whether the ache
To create and to make
Swift was his start as was his end
What scars are left to mend?
