discovered.

oops!   

The visit

this time the angel flew out of the dawn
on wings of wind
or maybe not an angel
but icarus descending
unscathed this time
either way
all wrapped in light
with a raven
on the arm....

the visit was brief barely a flicker as the sun
burned through the mist,
and after it was gone
i sang a song from childhood

i got wings... you got wings... all god's children got wings....

We chose the light!

it is the day after the election and i have no words.

last night i watched the results with my family and friends.

as the results began to roll in and it was clear pretty fast what was happening, my cousin, Jenny, and my daughter, Rosie and I lost our minds. we simply lost our minds and became a team of pure unbridled emotion. we alternately ran up and down the length of the barn whooping and hollering and then stood riveted with tears streaming down our faces.

and today i keep whispering to myself, my god, it really happened, America woke up and emerged from the dank cave we've been inhabiting and chose the light!! It seems we have decided to change what we believe in and the change is astounding!!

here is the morning i found today, november the 5th 2008, the day after we elected Barack Hussein Obama to be our next President!!!
