20.      The peace

How can you feel someone’s voice through your own words?

 

You absorb my breath because it is yours.

You absorb my view because we share sight.

 

In the vision it was a home with an atrium living room

and skylights and gray sky.

 

The kids lined up their sleeping bags

And pretended to roast marshmallows under a tent.

 

We understood the assignment and lined up for the march.

Glacier river,

Until we meet again.
