Waking up

Today the light cascaded down to the ocean
as a silent waterfall of pale golden light
upon a bed of shadowed charcoal clouds.
The image of a card from many years ago filled my thoughts.
A man,
his head hung in shame and
sorrow
or
defeat?
Inside, inscribed,
"I'm sorry, duh.duh.duh."
Rain wept strongly behind him, surrounding him,
pushing him downward and into the night.
Where ever will we meet.
When we move forward
when we have walked
and closed our eyes.
