Everpresent

You

As embodied by thought and memory

Lurk in the shadows

To emerge in those rare moments

Humble in your beauty

You are everpresent

Since become a fixture 

In my inner halls

A relief that every so often

Catches the eye once more

Captures the heart once more

In remembrance and admiration

Of its intricate splendor
