A Walk in the Wilderness
fresh morning dew scintillates
on diamond webs
under a new sun rising
from a horizon's pink glow
wildflowers sweeten fresh air
as a busy world fades from
memory of traffic noise forgotten
as songbirds serenade from a distance
all is peace in soft breathing
and quiet echoes of a heart beat
as calm radiates from silent footfalls
along a quiet wooded trail
while away from a wild fortress
of wilderness and ivory towers of solitude
a world burns with alien passions
of flesh meeting steel in relentless violence
awareness dawns, stopping him.......mid-stride
on a thin edge of enlightenment
as he can hear whispered echoes
of his own death softly screaming
and answers in a whispered song
of slowly drawn ringing steel
