unearthed

unearthed, this
cracked plate, this jagged
piece of blue china,
mud caked,
time worn, dimpled with
bites of winter
and sun,
has a story.
as does your own life,
chipped and used,
faded,
but kept clean
and ready,
stacked in the cupboard,
waiting for
someone with careful hands
to use, perhaps by
someone like you.
