A Moment

The Only One of its Kind

A Moment

On my little

table, between

notebook and old

lamp there sits a

perfect pinecone.

It smells a bit like

my siblings on

a fall day,

drenched in

leaf-bits, crunched

underfoot and

piled to make

walls and

beds and

pillows. We were

prepared

to live there,

beneath boughs,

beneath clouds

and dreams— maybe

one of them

knows

why we left.

    This poem made me gasp from the beauty of it. The last line reminded me of those ever elusive twists that makes a stunning haiku. You captured that rare and fleeting moment so beautifully. Congratulations on placing Runner Up in the Uncommon Challenge. ❤️'d and subscribed :)
