Elemental Transition
Drifting out of its element,
a window on a past life
meets a drifter on a stream.
A gifted memento,
its form a natural fit,
finds a new home.
A new window opens,
completing
an elemental transition.
Driftwood found while kayaking has been married to a stone that was gifted.
The prompt for Day 19 of National/Global Poetry Month at napowrimo.net is to write about something found while out and about.

Perfecto for prompt, KG. My hat’s off.

I had wanted to do something with the wood, but it just seemed to be lacking something. Voila!

Thank you, Jazz. The wood had been in the garage drying out for months. When the stone came at Christmas, I knew right away what to do with it. It was like kismet.

It is a whole universe of natural creation and brilliant artistry and with the words as the glue that brings it together.
