December 19*

Rillrocks ~ photo by Kevin Jones

after the storm
i go to the beach
          search for stones
          which have never been seen
before.
ever.

finger a few, maybe
never to be touched
again, ever.

and remember
          this sky
          this earth
          this instant
has never been before
and will never be
                    again.

it is once.
