Poetry by Robert Stone: To follow through the course

A birthday sonnet for Lisa Comperry
When walking beaches let us hear crow say,
I watch for old signs and I look for new,
the tide is out and I will search today
for trinkets and for treasures in my view.

When resting fingers make us think crochet,
they know the tension needed for each stitch,
the slip knots, chains, the spikes and ripples stray
but little from the final pattern rich.

When exercise to thrive we seek croquet,
our passion strong to follow through the course,
the mallets smartly swung, the balls on way,
the hoops passed through with right amount of force.

When waiting in the night to hear crow day,
we feel that rooster song is way to pray.
~ Robert Stone, 31 December 2020
