What Drives Me Still

The light through

My Grandmother’s

Bedroom window

Called out to me

 

‘Calls out to me’

 

Leading me to places

Where I had to go

Revisiting me now

In my twilight years

 

‘In my twilight years’

 

Reminding me again

Of those places I’ve been

And my reasons for going

As the mileposts shone

 

‘And the mileposts shine’

 

Reaching into the distance

Where the horizon pulled

And the dawn arrived

In what drove me once

 

‘In what drives me still’

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2014)
