To me
Than a road trip
Through unknown country
Nature’s patterns
Repeat
In scale
And context
A Martian landscape?
Or an Earthly detail?
Like here, where the fires burned
In Yellowstone
And the sky shone purple
Above the sun’s yellow, turned
But time itself wields no might
But for agents of change
Like the workings of nature and her creatures
I am not alone on this journey
Many seek the limitations of their world view
There are few things more satisfying
Than sharing something new and beautiful
With family
To the rock, it seems just yesterday
It had been the sand
Gently rolling with the waves
But… Oh! If I could choose
Choose anywhere in the world
It would be here, I’d live
In that dark house by the sea
Honour them
When the sun rises
And their guidance
Is no longer required
