Impact

Frozen open
a dark stream forks through
a whitened forest.
 
I feel
the chill of eternity
and the warm pulse of now
in one place.
 
You alone know
how I struggle to recover time,
like melted ice
carries a vibrant red leaf.
 
I reach into the water
and remove a rock
to shift the flow
and change the world forever.
