Seeking Stones

I walk the path with eyes cast down the ground Outside I stand but the air waits in lull Seeking all stones until you have been found Yet the passing of time exposed the dull A moment at once so close yet so far Speaking my words I wonder if you hear Engraved your name shows the final last scar One last embrace before you disappear Disguised as a sign your wordless greeting Discernible your presence at my side Unexpected and brief unseen meeting Vanished yet waits as the shore does the tide I kneel beside your stone in the clover With the ease I know you’re watching over
