Howling at the half moonas Orion hangs abovethe mountain silhouette, coyotes converge.The star-splattered skypeels eyes up and unshadowed to make patterns of distant suns.Highway hums and powerlineswash the white noiseof a country night.

gratitude swells
Cleansed and covered overhead by waves of wonderunder cold summer skies;the Pacific pacifies wavering hearts.Gratitude for the wild seasliving within us andsummoning us together ~tides coincide on the foam lined shore. Thank you for reading! Forever grateful for the time you spend here.
