The roadie




I started down this road early today
cup in hand and warmth in the belly.
Blindness quickly overcame me
but still I walk, oh yes,
I walk like the earth circles the sun—
I walk on.

None to guide me,
only noise and smell—
wind pushing me, rain washing ashes from my feet.
I know your face is in the world.

How will I find you, still as you are and
hidden in tall grasses?  How will I meet you?

I am listening for your little song. 

I am walking to you now.

  1. Optimistic and evocative. Listening and walking sounds like a very good place to start to me.

  2. I like this, Rhonda. I do believe that we find if we keep walking, searching, and listening.
