Uncover the Sun

Rocks and Ruins

 

What endures

may not be

what you thought

or even what you felt

 

Your life will fade 

into earth again,

as even stone houses

eventually crumble

 

But the rocks, 

whose offspring

are dust,

still remember the stars

 

And what you build

upon, even the dearest

foundation that falters,

leaves an imprint

 

That echoing place

of heart, of home,

lingers long past

any forgetting
