There is no shadowy glimpse of a
presence that roamed long ago.

There is no wild cry on the stillness
of a whispered breeze.

Only a memory exists of the dignified
being woven intricately into the span
of life.

Only a memory of what once existed.
Free on the breath of the land.

Once of the living, once belonging.
A past heartbeat of the land.

Clasped in finality.
Now there is only a memory.

From the book of poetry The Greatest Treasure by Amy Romaine Buchanan copyright 2005 published by iUniverse
