"COURAGE"

by Thomas Toohey
July 17, 2007
 
It dawns on me:
Clouds with wind and sun breathe
A note that teaches
and with it comes
a wandering lesson:
 
A point beyond my estimation
An earshadow pounding
For attention to be paid.
 
Messages in odd languages
Not exactly foreign, but
Vaguer than a rainbow palette-
 
More numinous, more hidden
As a call for courage
Makes a hollow sound within
The universe of the familiar
As my teacher reappears.
