March 20, 2009 A Tangle of Trees (Very Early Memories #1)
Very Early Memories #1
We met the first time like this
My people brought me to your village
By boat
I was burning with fever
The river was black
Your hut yellow and gold
With smoke and cinders
The mat I lay upon
Gray and red
You fed me bitter tea
You worked on my wounds
Your hands were soft
It felt good to be there
I remember your tears on my body
I tried to thank you
I tried to ask why the tears
But I was spirit then and gone.
