Famous Quotes By Lynn Martin
Accidentals
Something out of place,
seen where it doesn't belong.
A surprise on the water
like Tundra Swans unexpected
and flung far from the Arctic
onto a Vermont pond.
Me, driving home, seeing all that white
with sinewy S-shaped necks
out of the corner of my eye.
Blessed is an ordinary Wednesday,
now etched forever in memory
as that Wednesday I went home
another way and found myself
far flung from work, from home,
from whoever I was before
black beaks beckoned me
while four pairs of wings unfolded. — Lynn Martin
Under the Walnut Tree
When I face what has left my life,
I bow. I walk outside into the cold,
rain nesting in my hair.
All the houses near me
have their lights on. Somewhere,
there is a deep listening.
I stand in the dark for a long time
under the walnut tree, unable
to tell anyone, not even the night,
what I know. I feel the darkness
rush towards me, and I open my arms. — Lynn Martin
