These Days

These days,
Traveler's heart is
split in two with grief,
half of it swimming
around and around a lagoon,
where a small orphaned orca calf
is trapped,
grieving her mother.

The other half,
that believes in life and loves this planet,
is losing hope as, in almost every instance,
human beings around the world
seem to have lost our way.

Traveler's wish
is that we learn from the animals
how to live:
simply,
truly,
respectfully
and gently
on Mother Earth.

And that the
Brave Little Hunter
will soon swim free
with her pod.

  2. I too hope the brave little hunter will find a way. I keep calling the orca a warrior and I guess in some ways it is a warrior. Sigh
