*Alone-ness

Roadways move beneath my feet

And winds brush through my hair

Great suns slide across my sky

While Moon-tides rise and fall.

Tomorrows are just yesterdays

Not yet arrived today

And silence is a noise I trust

To hear the Buzzards call.

Warships, guns and cannons

Rip holes into the veil

Away in someone else’s land

While mine is safe and small;

Yet vast it is when wanting it

To stretch horizons far

And where I walk alone today

I know I have it all.

Loneliness is not my friend

(An enemy of old)

It has no home within my heart

When I am walking tall.

Companions I have all around

In tree and bird and star

Happiness resides in me

Alone, to never fall.
