When was the dream?
The first seed born?
Planted deep in Memory’s Seam …
Stitched with care
Preserving there
What Consciousness
Recalled –
How odd to find
So many clues
So Long embraced In longhand hues
Recording every Makers’ Mark
with notes
In time
Redeemed –
Like coupons
In a grocery store
Or S&H Stamp
Greenbucks
books
Waiting there on lay-a-way
To be Claimed Again
Restored.
