Oh it has been too long
I must see you again
You have laid your eggs and the goslings have hatched
You’ve taken them on so many outings
I can see that they are coming into their later gosling stage
No longer are they lost in blades of grass
Now they stand beside you, mother dear
wondering a little further
The coyote and fox have kept me away
but today I am drawn to my crystal springs beside the forest
I must see you again
The frogs are jumping
mysterious birds serenading
whispering breezes in each treetop
Oh how my locks gently sway
I breathe in
I am free
I rest my eyes on the ripples of clear waters as your family gracefully glides by
Oh friend I am so excited to be here
The only thing that can keep my pen from pouring out these words
is the sun going down
I give thanks
and celebrate this moment
