Stone Eldership

At Bryce Canyon
 

Beyond Ancient we pass like the idea of an exhale.

Do we tickle your rock spirit like a loosely captured image of a dream?

How many people walk your walls shedding their lives, like vapor rising?

Unfathomable how the life of a tree is half a blink of an eye to you.

Like the Red Rocks of Sedona

I am comforted to know you're here-

To know I can lean back into your stone eldership

Yet you have no desire or capacity to bend to my moods, will or words. 

I cannot manipulate you with my desires. 

You give me perspective of how fleeting and fast my life is.

So I am grateful I am spending time here in the sunshine 

Gracefully encompassed by the ground that is you.
