I watch a family of deer
feeding on the corn in the large bucket
set out for winter feeding
the older deer ate first and then the young
but there was a compassion there
and an order...a love...a compassion
but is that not true of all creatures of this universe?
friendship is like that, an order, a freedom, a love
beyond words or ways to tell about it...
returning from a visit this last week-end to Roger and Pat's home
was like gathering about the table in love
I am so grateful for this friendship, since childhood
and all my friends, thanks Roger and Pat, we love you!
