          Eye, the beholder

          I move about in my neighborhood sliced by tram tracks 
          Just as I did in the forest as a child,
          With the same ease; open, quiet, soft, scanning the ground 
          Like a curious animal, senses keen

          Foraging.

          My own children, born here, are already at school
          Plenty of years to learn the local pavements, Each crack, stain and spill a remembered shape in me
          This kind of knowing is how a wild thing spots what’s fallen newly
          - and takes it!

          Walking, these instincts, older than my body.

          The fragments I gather are no different 
          From the treasure long ago
          A leaf, torn cardboard, a pebble, some wire  
          Each the only one there is.

          And later at home when I arrange my harvest 
          in ways that please me
          I am my ancestors, again.
