Spanish Rock




One day to lay down
be a passive rock
in time
allow moss to explore
and cling - a beard of sorts.

Tiny moss hands
find holds
in crevices and thoughts
whisper
secrets into dreams.

One day in time
to soak up eternal sunshine
like the rock
heat penetrates
blocks the doubt.

To find the silent song
so strong
all ears can hear
and decide
to pay it no heed.

One day to be a wall
a spine, a gated arch where hands
your hands
might linger, touch, remember
the fields once rested in.
