Gillian Swain - #43 - Beyond the giant Bracken

Beyond the giant Bracken
light is thinner
the Ancients don't lie in wait
there   they live openly
among the dapple   shadow   water
these are the places we do not walk
down the river   story collects
in eddies of time   lapse   and hide
like forgotten things
Up here where sun sings   on moving glass
we   oblivious and breath-snatched
wade shy feet in icy rush
sink in smooth   delve   in a yawn    
unaware   of our truths   being carried
to deeper pools   scrutinized 
under the curl of timeless fronds
a forest of unread chronicles
