My Turn

Glenn Hager has organized a synchroblog for Monday May 5th, entitled "Your Turn", where he asks "How are you doing? What are you doing? What are you learning?What are you dreaming about?" This is my contribution.

My dreams are wafting around my head,
like smoke from a cigar,
trying to find some ground to stand on;
still, nothing but clouds and air,
sometimes rain.
I now find the greatest triumph
in the freedom
to tell someone they are loved no less
for questioning, seeking, or doubting.
The path is wide and winding
not narrow, nor straight,
purpose is in the adventure,
not in the destination,
and I have the blisters to prove it.
It feels right to be this free
like the ocean swirling around my ankles
with all its vengeance in the surge
sucking the sand from between my toes,
still I do not lose my footing.
Beyond that
my horizons say to watch, listen and learn
for silence serves to calm,
and peace becomes more apparent
when I stop trying so hard.
