Simply Understand

I may remain broken; filling in the

Cracks whenever I can.


I'll move on and notice the absurdity

In the pebbles sleeping on the tile


And in the short-lived words of temporary

Acquaintances.


There are secrets in a glass of water

On the counter.


There is much more in an odd sprout

Growing where others deem impossible.


I'll pick up my fragments and continue

To look and try to simply understand.
