    These things
    might be forgotten,
    but this collection does awaken memory.
    [and the heart knows what the mind remembers]

    If life is a seasonal occupation
    then I am a tree
    feeling and remembering
    but my branches are reaching out into wind
    because I am dreaming
    I am a bird
