Breaking Throuh
The mist is lifting, soon the world
will reveal itself to be just shorelines
between one dream and another.
I need to be away.
my last Autumn will be as my first,
something undefined,
yet always pushing me along,
a moving stream
still ferrying last year's fallen leaf.
This season the foliage is burning brighter,
a deeper hue has caught fire,
and when the trees are bare
will I keep walking between them
or shall I be
a luminous river in flood,
creating shorelines where none before
have ever existed.
