silent retreat

____________________________________

everywhere hills

undulating

on the pathless path whom

or whatever we may meet

we meet as fellow travelers

no one walks here alone even

when at times walking feels lonely

treading the same footpath with

ants looking up at the stars

and moving thunderstorms

maybe it's in their slumber

that we are sleepwalking
