approaching in the dawn's light
racing efffortlessly across the mire
as you measure out your grief
giving it enough time to honor
what you think you have lost
standing where you still wish to be
while your bare footprints imprint
one last stand in the old muddy shore
leaving a marker to be discovered again
by another soul who will stand in your place
once you decide to vacate this hovering
once you decide to vacate this hovering
at the intersection of what was and is
but the tide is slowly rising now
as the ocean meanders in
to kiss the river a greeting
you are welcome there too
to walk upon this sweet water
across the virgin delta newly formed
only just now solid enough to embrace
the next moment of your being
and carry you forward in grace
where happiness awaits your taking
and your baggage may be left behind
when the time is right for you to choose
