"His Garden of Peace" by Terry Mulert
There goes a man
walking like a branch
blown free from the forest
getting lost until the breeze
eats the sound of his feet
he carries many good memories
and disappointments
into the future
where all will be divided
among those who sleep in the day
faces and voices of loved ones
float by and rest
in the perfect stillness
of rocks and sand
and the falling leaves
he walks until his heart turns to gold
and there he buries it with seeds
under the spring rains
and soft green buds
quietly stroking the air.
