The one down the hill,
beyond your house
cool in shade
with great pasture trees,
my silent questioners,
breeze-like.
A sun drenched life.
My younger body swam
in its shallows.
the small pond
filled partially
by the excrement
of large cows.
The place frozen in our winters.
my younger eyes watched
as parents and siblings
slid across the frozen mirror.
the place warm and alone.
In all our worlds,
we live by that pond.
