Matched Stones – v2

They once were even

matched to one another

the stones in their season

placed just so, perfect

Now lichen covered

years of wind and rain

snow and ice in their season

seeking to chip away

The rough-hewn granite

gathered from the fields

placed just so in another season

falling in this time, broken

Needing hands, care,

to lift the stones

matching them together

once more with a purpose

to be a measuring line
