Ice creased
dredged dragging
of stone over stone
by layers of snow
never melting

rain pooled leavings
now collected eons later
offer relief to the few
that know where to look

Oasis
no palms or psalm sung
to these the scattered
tribes found

No longer they roam
but still the creases remain
to quench the wary throat

Dipping a hand
I taste the past

I hope the stream of memory was a good, long, cool, swallow....

I enjoyed this!

So many never care to look - so their souls are never fed. This is beautiful and thought-provoking. I like it very much.
