Great Canyon

by Ethel Mortenson Davis

“You must come.”

“No, not yet.”

“You have no choice.”

“But I must right something
in my life.
Wait till morning.”

“You have no more mornings
in your quiver.”

“Oh.”

“Now, let go
of the rim
of the Great Canyon.”

    Wow, more wow. I love “no more mornings in your quiver.”

  2. The time has arrived
    Quiet, vast and glorious
    Your wise acceptance
