Albatross
I see it now,
flying low
over silver-spumed waves.
I can enlarge the picture,
zoom into
its bright midnight eyes,
see that it is I,
I that propel these wanderings,
the lone flights
over ever widening oceans,
all those
ever-retreating harbors.
I see now
it is I that seek
that which I was born to find
in every stilled moment.?
