Shards
On wooden bench
The glass lies ready
Soon stained and fixed
Hot work and heavy
Leaded and cemented
Finally raised in place
Illuminating space
On sandy beach
More glass is ready
Ground down by time
Cool work and light
Tumbled and salted
Precious but hidden
Waiting the artist’s hand
And resurrection
