We Wait

We wait
and wonder in the waiting.
Is this the time, the place?
Are these the ones who also wait
and wonder if I am the one
for this time and in this place?
We wait
and watch the sun rise each morning,
tracking across the sky till night
and wonder in the waiting.
Will this day be the one
when I hear the clarion call
across the mountains,
the call asking me to come out
and be the one?
We wait
through the dark and quiet night,
waiting for the trackless path
no longer to be hidden from our eyes.
We wait.
Perhaps our best, most precious gift
is the silent, patient waiting
when the darkness seems never
to end or even to become less dark.
Perhaps the time and place we wait
is where we are meant to be,
sharing time and place with those
who also wait.

Thank you, Meenakshi. Even in the most active of times, to take the time to be silent and await the moment is blessing and joy.
Thank you Spirit Eagle!
