Learning to Walk Dirt Roads In The Dark…
Susan Lowery 7/2008
I’m learning to walk dirt roads in the dark
And sense the scent of wild willows
Watching lizards ascent and descend
Over ancient adobe windows (structures)
Standing in awe of sunsets
And rainbows as they grace the sky
Away, is the sparkle of city lights
Over and under the arroyos
Mama thrasher, yellow breasted wren
And, Ms. Prairie falcon
Mr. Tortoise, hummingbird moth
come live with me ‘neath my portillo
Cool, blazing desert
Exonerate my soul
Send my spirit reeling
From the underground to the Cosmos
Wind, wind blow me
Cross the desert floor
To my Shaman’s door step
Where I will learn more
I’m learning to walk dirt roads in the dirt
Trusting my inner sight
Using my inner wisdom
To guide me home safely at night…..
