things to remember


1

Stones

chinked with clumps of string -

walls reminded remember.

 

2

Birds singing

in spring bring

soulful overflow.

 

3

Father's land

isn't what you're thinking.

Ho!

Know swamp and field,

are America's gardens, 

yield

last hickories

and snakes

 

4

Mother's

pies were

shale crusted

thick creeks,

with apple shores.
