Honorable Mention
Keepsake
Graeme Mullen

I tried to whittle you,
To carve you clean,
Like a piece of driftwood.

But pieces of you
Just kept breaking off-
Just knots, I thought.

I didn’t see you weren’t wood,
But more like glass,
In quickening to break.

If I had known then,
I would have placed you,
Gently, beside the ocean,

And let your back file
With the sand’s breathing
Until you were smooth.
