Lost
I sought
I am
still searching
I am lost
for pieces
for words
puzzle pieces
piecing
the puzzle
together
I collect pieces
to a game
of puzzles
I am game
but I am puzzled
My puzzle begun
in the garden
for I had a garden
and in it a tree
I had a tree
and it bore apples
but
last year it bore none
suddenly
nothing
but something arose
from nothing
words
became many things
things
were created
spoken
written
became tales
inside words was creation
and it bloomed
in the garden
it puzzled me
puzzled and frightened
and excited me
into creating more
from words
words created worlds
as I created more words
connections
inside the garden
and outside
but mostly inside
and now
I am searching again
I seek
to find space
space inside
and between words
space for images
a special image
maybe
outside my garden
outside me
