The Harvest


In the serf's vase, a blossom gaudily sits.
Within an eternity so heartlessly clipped.
Goals only half met, pocked with regret.
You've come so far-far up from the crag.
The crystal of the dream withering to hagfish.
It was all about the gifts and the voyage within 
A silver starfish, a tide pool's lone gem.
