joy
and interest in the shard
of a
blue
plate unearthed
in the freshly plowed
yard
of dirt
where a home once stood
during
the civil war.
there are more shards
to come.
ones that he will piece
together
with delicate hand
and brush,
and form a story of sorts
of how
they ended here
in this backyard plot
of land.
all past is fiction when
you begin
to dig.
