Notes About The Poem

Hive of Striving

we are everywhere
within the straw of our relationships
	      to shine a sheen 
that comes from polishing 
                                each others coats

what we see are not 
	       our individual blades
but feel the wind created 
	                     in the moments of our movements
see the field and forest sky 
	through each others eye

                                  then within the shelter of our family
	       turn our wheel together 
in a hive of striving.
	       It is who we are 
        inside this air.
