Object in Love Coherent

Perhaps you too have noticed:

How

mundane sight becomes inspired image
and speaks to a moment or a forever.

"Object in Love Coherent"
Bob Komives 

How
(in this rather ordinary example)
a wedge
(struck by my earnest-but-ignorant hammer)
sits partway driven into heart of elm
and there reveals
strong-but-elegant fiber,
(bonds long hidden)
that strive to cohere entire wood.

How 
a confounded-but-sensitive eye
can see in this revelation
beauty--
beauty enough to switch violence to reverence
(cause a pause)
(a setting aside)
a putting on display of 
                "Object in Love Coherent".

How
(once noticed)
such curious work of mind
(and art)
can warm us longer
than ever could mere firewood.
