Out Here

 


Even clean air,

seen through many miles,

like in western Wyoming,

or the Colorado Rockies,

can haze the distant mountains.




I am out here, attentive,

wrapped in time's presence.



Ready for an elk sighting,

a moose in a lake,

or a distant meadowlark

making music 

from his throne

on a wooden fencepost.



In between the meadowlark's calls,

in the space between mountains,

God speaks in silence.



I am out here.

Listening.
