The peach tree
Quiet and gentle
A memory of the loves moved on
The sandy cobbled earth
A sign of glacial geology
Of times beyond our ken
The newly framed house
A plan-form image recalling
The gravel laden stream-tide
Of ice crust melt
Finding passage between
Topographical masses
The geologist
Home from the mineral search
Of deep underground
Lounges in the crafted gallery hall
And contemplates
The remnant glacial lake afore
And peach tree aft
Recalling loves
And beginnings
