white painted trunks, before the first people,

before the people who conquered

those people, before gold, the sprawl

of Modesto, Turlock’s blinding lights.

California, easy to lose, bound with rivers.

SHARON FAIN

Feather River

You come hoping to find what you need

beneath the incense cedars

in the seaward rush of water.

Some antidote to grief.

The cautious mind refuses

new leaves from dead branches,

perfume from stones.

Look again. Look harder.

Long gazing at canyon walls,

at barn swallows in flight.

Long gazing at the blank page,

which is also sacred.
