     You go away                   You come
                back and rediscover
               the particular light
                      and how
                        it
                       falls
                    on familiar
places                   /                things
                   how it shapes
               the land beyond your
                  old window even
                   when there is
no                                            moon
                 something you had
                     forgotten
             when it was all you knew
                   and were not
     a/part                            from it
                     to notice
