Round and Round – Seize the Poem
A Hundred Gourds – Dusk
Hedgerow #10 – The River
the river Silence
beckons,
i dive in
listening
to ancient psalms
sing their poetry
tapping deeper
touching the pain
swimming through
to the still, silent pool,
i reach for a whisper
a single metaphor,
murmured underwater
an echo…. maybe joy
gasping,
and coming up
for air
then seeing
the sun rise
hearing the sky shout, i breathe,
find a voice,
and sing. **
