Markers

Nah, I’m not approaching
some kind of threshold —
no door advances towards me,
no conveyer bears me, willy nilly,
towards a place of change

My progress rather
is like the dawn
and the stately procession
of summer clouds

No reckoning, no tally,
just the roll of days
and the smile of light footfall,
barefoot communion,
electrifying praise.
