Magic: 10.16.13

Autumn (continued)

4.

I look up
and it's all around

in the in-breath
in the out-breath
in the way the light hits just
there
right there

and I wonder if it's okay to cry
but I laugh instead

at the resplendence of this absurdly beautiful day
at the landscape that I adore
at the knowing that everything will be okay
if only I will let it

so I am quiet
listening for a sound that will still me

Canada geese (and he asks me why they are in a line instead of a V)

yes, there
and I marvel at their purposeful elegance
wishing hard that I could join them

just for a moment
to be part of the collective
to feel the calling and follow it without question

without question

there
right there

is the magic
