What makes me large

Rarely am I larger
Than when connected
To a landscape
Which makes me feel

small

I watch the seagull
Soar so effortlessly
Riding the air
As if its currents
Are visible to him

I wish, for a moment
That his grace was mine
That his freedom of flight
Was something I could experience

Sunlight penetrates the dawn
Fiery, virile, urgent
Skyline silhouette
City slumbering, still

Solitude
Among millions
Sole witness
To creation

When I feel drained
Mentally, physically, spiritually
I quiet my mind
Allow my body to speak

I give us solitude
Connect to the battery
That is nature
And draw from her infinite energy

When travelling
I may know the road I am on
And even where it goes
But am always surprised
Where it takes me

In many ways
We give more reverence
To the dead
Than the living

The tenacity
With which life
Clings to life
Inspires me

There is no better way
To understand the path I must follow
Than from the vantage point gained
Through the hard work
Of elevating myself

From a high vantage
I scour the world below
Seeking the scattered points of reference
By which I’ll find my way
When I visit the low ground

There is a road
Which goes
From here
To somewhere

Between
There seems
An expanse
Of nothingness
