Blind

I seek comforts of shelter
       not chaotic seas
but solid line      earth paths
filled with wind rhythm & light shafts
breaking canopy
          forest shade
where dreams of weed thatch
             & tangled flower
grass swathed
   haze in light
     open to waters
       calm surface
        my memory
secrets forms mottled in shadow,
    through comprehension

open to memory here peripheral sight senses beyond in memory hazed weed thatch beside landscape broken to cove calm  surface transparent and bottom wanders through comprehension broken surface   where light can penetrate where memory can surface giving objects personal emotional significance and more animacy power

stand    sand flats exposed
to winds white foam   cardinal
point  direct  to wing on wing
passage of sail
      waters green blue
grey where heron hunts
     green weed trailing current swept
shallow    its length
end reflecting sky  to sea
face to face rippled
sand  sea  tide return
pools across flats
as in memory melting snows
form lake shallow on black earth fields
wind rippling waters
warmed
