At Bridal Veil Falls, Yosemite- October 2013 (May 16 2017)

I climbed up a ledge
and looked up when
A drop of golden beam
stole silently
Down a bough, perched like
a lone sentinel
Upon a timeless rock
in the fall wind.


Oh, could I stay here
as seasons die,
Waiting for a dawn
when hope gives way
And faith becomes sight
As twinkling eyes
Behold a glory
Untold, unseen.
