The Earth Remembers Her Beginning
February 10, 2009
I am alone
No one but myself
Standing between
Ground and endless sky
At first, nothing
Nothing at all except
Endless, waving grasses
I watch the sky looming down
A blue bowl spread over the earth
I close my eyes and listen...
At first, nothing; nothing at all
But the sound of my breathing
Wind ever so gently whispering
Whispering mystery in my ears
"This is the way the world was!"
Hearing a noise I open my eyes
Realizing I am never alone here
Time flows past, an endless stream
Buildings stand between earth and sky
No stillness
No silence
Nothing
