I'LL BE BACK

1.17.2016

The other day I caught the end
of the most beautiful song on the radio,
I had never heard it before.
It was 11:11, bumping elbows,
and the color magenta, somehow put into music.

But I did't write down the title.
Because I am working on letting things be beautiful
for just a short time,
without needed them to continue
in order to be appreciated.

I'm working on doing that with you, too.

I caught the end just as I reached the edge
of my favorite mountains.
But instead of going up the canyon,
I turned right.
Because sadly, my plans don't always have room for mountains.
But my endings always do.

I'll be back.
