Life in the Reserve

Ode to the sharing ones

Funny
The things we see
And those we don't
 
None of us gets out of here alive
So when did that cavernous cemetery go in
 
And how often have I driven past that pine
Missing the hawk tense for the hunt
 
So many docent voices help me see
And hear
And taste
And touch
And smell
And wonder
And wonder some more
