I Am Silence (For Dave)

i am the wolf, hot breath panting, teeth gleaming in the darkness... feet running the path of the night. i am the hawk, sucking freedom from the skies, great wings lifting my soul... infinity in my eyes. i am the wind, born from nowhere, blowing past destination and thought... both creation and destruction. i am the rain, falling from an unseen source, to dance in the mouths of the earth... tears of sorrow and redemption. i am the moon, sifting through timeless clouds, winding through the fingers of trees... i am hope unnamed! i am the night, the intimate touch of darkness, forgiveness, death, and rebirth... i am the stillness of god! i am silence!
