There is no friend so noble as some sunlight let in on a long dark room.
If you keep the heart alive a little longer,
love will come.
Don't expect a free lunch without a good
morning's work.

TRAVELING COMPANIONS |
|
Most highways
lead away
not to
it is the same with roads
and country paths.
Goodbye to what we knew -
hello may never come again.
With suitcase packed
and trunk filled up with nothing,
everything we have,
it takes another reticule
to hold the remnants of our past lives
while leaving room enough
to stuff in some remaining bag
whatever trash or treasure
lies ahead.
Together
we may go down roads
that seem to have
no sense or sensibility.
But who's to know
what hamlet waiting
down the trail
will capture our imaginations,
those we thought too old
to be of use,
and make us see
a different side of truth.
Together is the word
that conjures magic
and makes Utopia
out of Timbuktu,
changes Alamo into Atlantis.
So it is
that arm in arm
we travel and we tour
we hike down highways
broad and slight
in weather cold
and climate fair.
Turn the corner
turn the page
what you have is THERE.
-from "Watch for the Wind," 1983 |
