Anywhere

I guide my glassed 

envelope along the weaving

asphalt and see the crowns of

a million trees.

 

I recall the chittering

of a bird and a

small, furry rustle

amid the silent forest.

 

When the leaves go screaming 

off branches and lightning

strobes the windows,

I am sheltered in you.

 

As I stand with my 

toes in the sand,

the salt air 

waving my hair,

 

shushing breakers

settle my heart beat;

I am alone 

with you.

 

When the wind yowls and

the rollers pound, 

they thunder in my veins,

and I drink in your strength.

 

Anywhere, with you, is home.
