I will take the time
to gaze upon
the burnished chest
of the resident hawk
while I am waiting
for the sun to drop
and pastel
the water blue
I will patiently
wait
for the mountains
to radiate
for my heart
to steady
for the return
of peace
I will relinquish
control over
my tiny world
scattered thoughts
flying up
brushing
their curved wings
against me
I will remember
land and sea
will forever be
remaining long after
we hurt each other
long after we turn
our backs
on love
I will take the time
to be still
moon balanced
on my open palm
illusive beacon
enlighten
the coming
night
