waiting

for morning to come
for tide to turn
for strength to gather
for haze to clear
for work to make money
for money to (sigh) make trust
for trust to get free and just go
for a dream
for a sign
for a yes
for a no
for a hand reaching out
in accompaniment
for companions not like the last time
for autonomy and sweet interdependence
for new hearth skills to learn
old heart skills reinvited
and some center of fire rising up
out of lifetimes of earth air avoidance
ready to burn and converge with the Light
