History
Robert Morgan
 
 
Where cloudbursts tore a gash 
 in the shoulder of the ridge, 
 uprooting ferns and hedge, 
 a maple1 and an ash, 
 a honeysuckle vine 
 and wires of gold ground pine, 
 the slide exposed a vein 
 of mica2, groundhog den, 
 a zone of luminous3 clay, 
 revealing rocks like teeth, 
 a seam of yellow earth, 
 and brought to light of noon, 
 after half a millennium, 
 there in the mud, a shining 
 coin of the Spanish king.
