Erected years ago
to control cattle.
Now weathered by
sun, snow, wind and rain.
Aging with dignity,
graying gracefully.
Former trees holding
knots within wood grain.
Part-time perches for
hawks, meadowlarks and bluebirds.
A straight line
pointing to the future.
Measuring the passage of time,
and the geography of hope.
