To find the way again

Lie to the wind, searching warmth,

rise on the light and cutting clouds

to float between gulls, shouting

like a child that finds his way

arms wide and the heart bright open

the word that’s lying on the lips

is sweet and salt and in the middle

it tastes like the deepest phrases

and within the knowing, to start again

it is to forget but still remember

what loving is, to get the chance

on a relieving sigh of forgiveness

to find the way again.
