Poem: Echoes in the Grain

Upon the dark wood's silent plane, A hand, both weathered and fair, Leaves whispers of the desert's reign, Etched in the dusted air. Fingers trace the ageless song, Of rock and wood entwined, Each groove a tale of labor long, Of earth's embrace, unrefined. Reddish hues upon the tips, Speak of clay and sunburnt lands, Where whispers of the canyon's lips Are held in calloused hands. This hand, a map of stories vast, Of journeys through the wild, Rests upon the wood at last, Its touch both rough and mild. In the grain, the echoes fade, Of tales both old and new, A hand on wood, a bond remade, In nature's timeless view.
