Moss
Moss On Sundays I make myself familiar with the moss on the oaf of rocks adjacent to the driveway on the west side of the house. They’re always keen to know if I prefer the last letters or do I prefer the first or the middle that form a word or a proverb. Too they’re keen to...

No moss on the steady stone
When you have lost a gem of priceless worth, Do not mourn long, what you can't restore; For in the sky a new star has its birth, And in the earth more treasures wait to explore. When you have soared above the highest peak, Don't swell with pride, your splendid leap; For in the dark a hidden trap may sneak, And, in...

Moss
The years have not mildewed for my moss is deep and soft, it is a fine as baby hair as thick as an uncut meadow. Somewhere there are lands I have plowed over and over, beneath which are the fragments of chalky skeletons, the remains of scant harvests.
