Mario Fallani (1934-2014) Gli alberi della vita 

[Found] 

“viewing mario fallani no. 1”

 

found the coin in a corner

I searched for endlessly

ready to cross the water

 

found the washbowl again

where I left it last

listening to hands in the water

 

found the house in the clearing

I’d forgot life held life precious

white beauty amidst the green

 

found seeds had burst the soil

as I raked away leaf litter

in gentle morning light

 

found words on a page

a revelation to me of being

in a book on an old shelf

 

on one day much like another

found your words to me

a day unlike any other

 

found sleep at last

a long time of it in the sun

that has gone below the trees
