Hiking this bouldered trail
on my earth bound existence,
I am suddenly touched
by the passing shadow
of a Red-tailed Hawk.
Above these foothills
scattered with Ponderosa,
he is sailing in circles.
Below these cumulus
growing whiter and brighter,
he is dancing on the wind.
Under this intensely blue
Colorado sky,
this flying shadow
felt like a brief blessing.
It was.
