MYSTERIOUS       MEMORIES


November night train halted on the bridge. 
Arrested by constant mystery of river, I see
Her   mercurial charm  changing.
Winter is late this year.   Her heavy liquid metal gell
Is preparing  itself for frozen solidity.


Smelter-poured  burnished silver coats  the watery  mirror
With   deep  reflections,  and  shadows of the past,  like
Grandma’s old silver  -  precious, shining  and   
Lying mysterious in darkness in the   half-open cutlery drawer.
With  the  blackness  of mercury,  liquid  in low  slow waves,   
And the   heaviness   of   lead   swirling  sluggishly 
In  the  cooling mould, river is  not yet plunged,  solidified. 


Unseen fish ripple her  surface and are gone in  near-inaudible  pitch. 
Her night voice murmurs low,  indistinct  in  the   dark’s  metallic  silence. 


In  the  moving welcoming  river,  dark mystery unknowable. 
From the bridge,  the  same timeless picture  
Recast  each day  as the  watery mirror changes.
Now stormy,  now  peaceful, now  romantic, now  sad.
Life’s   picture changes constantly with time. 
Stability in the changing life stream 
Is like a window image in the night  train, 
Whose outside scene changes but  inside  image is  constant.
