As the Sun Rose...

This Sun also rises
     through the green and first fall colors,
steaming shadows pierced by arrows
     of supple morning light,
illuminating the Fountain of Youth...

Where do my thoughts travel?
     where is it they run
after being reminded by the sun,
     that indeed a new day has begun
and the battle is not yet won?
     As ever, as ever
as ever they  have...

The Coyotes have returned
     asking me what i have learned
i responded,
     "Brothers, here is where i come
to learn what you have always known"
     They smiled,
"Peace does come from within,
     as do your merits and your sins,
nothing can begin unless something else ends;
     whatever continues was meant for you
for we are always given what we need
     but we have to learn to use our tools"...
