Songs From The Road

Travels lead to many places, outside and in. Often, it seems one repeats the same journey--but careful observation reveals new ways of seeing, understanding, being. Here's one from the road...



The Journey

Ribbon of road rises before,
lifts sight,
connects earth and air.
No separation between
path and perspective
as though the journey
from here to heaven
holds horizon
as translucent,
passable,
simple as
next step.
I have traveled this road
and more.
Once knew it well,
but now see
beyond blue
in the sky of your eyes.
