We Are Alone Yet In Union

We are alone
Amidst the birds, trees
A crickets, leaves

We are all alone
Atwood strangers formally joined at the hip

We are all alone
For mikes and mi,Ed and miles
Deep in the thick, dark, bushy forests

The sun is going down
Painting the sky colors of passionate
Orange, cherries, and grapes

We see each other in a new light
Colored with these passionate shades

We barely make eye contact
Lest the sun, the, birds, the trees
Witness to our deeds

The sun has retreated
The moon, stars and owls
Are all witness to what nature
Says must unravel

The gentle breeze
Slowly strips us of our insecurities
Our fears
Our traumas

The dewy grassy ground is soft and inviting
One can hear waves crashing
Waxing and waning
Getting intense in bursts of seconds
Calming down to gain her composure

Finally the miracle
The Red Sea parts
Only the promised one is allowed to pass

The Red Sea patiently and lovingly
Allows the promised one to safely pass
All the while to waves violently clash I to each other
Screaming more waves that clash into each other

Slowly the Red Sea retreats
The waves calm down
The vast sea and the promised one
Are never the same again

Now we rest and are united
We continue to wmbark on this new
Arduous, exciting, scary journey
Called life


We are fantastic
Bodies of water
That lovingly stream into the primordial ocean
For which we were originally manifest together
And after eons we return, unmanifest together
