*Into The Light*
A thousand days from now
the story is told
I can see
There is a rocking chair
on the porch
a book on the table
roses in a vase
I can see leaves
in a dance
whirling in the backyard
drunk of the wind´s essence
Our seagulls are back
screaming
flying in joy
Called by the spring
they escaped the darkness
tempted by a new journey
And I remember
your words
The gulls are us
A thousand days from now
the story is finally told
We have flown
into the light

This is an especially beautiful poem my dear Eclipse. I too am fond of seagulls…birds, butterflies and dragon/damsel flies facinate me. Seagulls are our State bird here in Utah. 😀
I love that verse….

the story is finally told
We have flown
into the light”
