A gift

From the blue spacious day

Familiar rhythms descend

Stirring marrow deep

~

Reunited

As once safe and solid ground, gives and gives

To the rising of the tide

Beneath the full moon’s rays    

~

We carry on conversations

Spun in ancient times

Seeking swift backroads

To our claim beneath the stars

~

As the days stride onward

And over the hills

Leaving us here to gather

Every second we’ve lost
