There is thunder here
The wind smokes of rain
There is a storm brewing in the mountains.
The tension is released.
Somewhere in the white sky the clouds are getting closer.
These blues don't care no more.
Somewhere in a pilgrim's pain the heart grows a little fuller.
The Path was worth the shoe leather.
Some days the fog hangs too close to the fire
and the sun spends half the morning burning off
the night mists.
Those days are a little easier when a friend offers a hug
and a smile
and says, "It sure is good to have you around."
Let's say a prayer for our pilgrims.
May they find warm shelter from their storms.
Let's sing a song for the Thunder.
May the Sky Drum clear our thoughts once again.
Ho!
