Back story redux

Of course there*s more to the story.  There always is.

There*s more to yesterday*s

Back story.

Of course there is.

There are layers upon layers

Of back story.

Of course there are.

Today reveals

Yet another layer.

Sometimes I need to be reminded

To keep looking,

To continue listening.

Tomorrow I will remember,

Even if I don*t remember

Today.

There*s always tomorrow.

I will look up at the stars tonight,

Find the bunny tracks

In the new snow.

I will discover the next layer

Of back story

Already packed down with boot prints

Under the snow

On the sidewalk

When I shovel.
