I See

Illustration by Maurice Sendak from Open House for Butterflies by Ruth Krauss

The past comes by and speaks to me
Sharing briefly what is known
Then moves along in futures song
Which transforms its message tone

I listen quietly to the whispers
See the dance of song-filled breeze
As something understood embraces me
Wherein some far off time agrees

It will be a long year 'til I understand
What grew from when a seed was sewn
That I must nurture in my dreams
To save me from that place alone
