Courage

Alan R

A few weeks back

We had evening winds gushing

At 40 miles an hour

I came home awestruck

The perfect bright moon

Layered on clouds, moving

At the speed of thoughts

Feels like I am a force of nature

Sync and aligned

Then and now

More than ever before

The cold doesn’t hurt

On quiet Ann Arbor streets

At least not like it wants to

Send me packing

Have I grown to love it more?

Has it gone softer on me?

With time and with peace

Tell me how do I know

How much courage

Is too much courage?

 

-Al
