Lonesome Walk Blues

Lonesome Walk Blues  
  
Texan sunset slows down time  
I stroll a dry creek bed  
To where water falls like mercy  
On cascade of rocky dreams  
Into a meeting pool where
We saw deer come to drink
A vision too evanescent for my camera
Memories surface upon arrival  
Of beloved and my tread  
Over ancient forests  
Now wood petrified like calcified bones  
My gather of wool unfolds  
Of canoe dragged seven miles  
With her on a visionary walk  
Fueled by love’s strength  
But only the twilight birds  
Serenade my lonely passage  
Until the windblown treetops  
Welcome her home  
She emerges with a wreath of wildflowers  
And a smile to rival heaven’s luster  
Reborn with cancer-free lungs  
To breathe the fresh air of love
