elusive

drifting in a river familiar
floating the waves of discovery
my own
alone
whispering with the many restless voices
shadows and strange faces
race along the shore
tripping,
sliding,
rising,
blending into one

mysterious muse on the move
waiting…
just beyond the crowd
beckoning...
'round the curve of the horizon
glowing...
above the tranquility of sunset
glimmering...
below the brilliance of sunrise
shimmering...
amidst the luminance of starshine
elusive...

wandering paths yet unknown
never alone,
on my own
