togetherness

and on this day
of celebration
with people flying in
i sit this quiet morning
and find my knees to pray
for safe arrival
for glory on the path
for quiet bits of wisdom
for journeys through the traps
and safely, may we sweet arrive
to smile our smiles and grins
together
in this aftermath
of all that we have been
through the dream of healing
we will come and find our way
i had the thought to offer you
i had the need to pray
and now the coming, sweet
together
after all that's come and gone
we come together,
her and i
we come and sing our songs
and so the sewn of sewing
gets our wild oats up and gone
and now, in this sweet middle age
the journey's still the one
i mark the tide with all entitlements
we come to in this time
i sing the song of something's up
and know we'll find the rhyme
to sit and know we come and go
to find our time to now
we give this gift
togetherness
we find our way
some how
