Day after day,
season
after season—hour
after hour,
that same familiar
changeling, her intelligence,
would bid her—
look, think, remember.
Remembering things
brings them back to life;
The early and eager-
to-bloom glories of today
may simply be
the dream of last night.
But wait, she thought,
last night, the moon
that hung up in the sky
was bright
yellow, three
dimensional—and full
with all our collective
memories of morning;
another invisible
thing made visible.
Meanwhile, the one which was still
reflected in her eye
was full—of black and white
photos of flowers.
