Steps in Sync

Wind runs its scattered fingers through my hair

As I stand at the peak of the mountain, far above where the laurels grow

Drips of water roll down the shoulders I left bare

Falling from the sky lit aglow

waves of thunderous clouds cradling the surrendered sun

Creating a steady sea of light-washing over the crest and valley

As the earth shifts upon its axis and all days are done-

The perpetual finale

My only thought-which I dare to think

Is “how is the moon rise in sync?

I got inspired when reworking something I had written a couple of years ago. I love reclaiming something I have built, like vines growing over a building.
