9/11

On a fall evening not long after the towers fell,
I sat on the south rim of the Grand Canyon watching
The evening fall,

The colors in the clouds, the rainstorms move far off.
The breath of wind on my face heralding
A coolness coming

And the quiet softness only emphasizing the space.
Behind, in the cottage you lay reading, waiting, love
Of my heart.
