From up on a summer hill
your message shines as bright
as day
A lonely passerby outlived by waves
With eyes to move mountains
to see across horizons
If I want to stay
and watch you from a summer hill
Imagine your silhouette on its way
home
I will never be without the faith
to call and be heard
We are vast empty acres of homeland
missing our long awaited breeze

© Elizabeth G., Marblehead, MA

This poem describes that wonderful feeling you get when you see a long awaited friend or family member slowly appearing over the horizon as you watch and wait for them.
