On the window sill
bottles sit in in echoes.
Memories, not dust.

Looking out of the dawn-cooled sunroom at Uncle’s house; it’s filled with his paintings and hand-set mosaics, as well as curios and artifacts he’s gathered over decades. These beautiful antique bottles, hold living memories, not dust.
