Calling General Quarters...

Calling General Quarters... 

North,
East,
South,
West,
A prayer,
A request,
To be blessed.

The time is here,
The call,
The test,
The burning winds,
The howling,
The frost of breath,
Prelude.

Foothills to a mountain,
Only Spirit knows,
Will we climb,
Will we stand,
A matter of heart.

The smallest Autumn leaf,
The tawny brown grasses,
The colors of hunting,
Lions and coyotes,
The hawk soaring above.

Moon is full,
Mars baleful backwards red,
Mercury in reverse,
Stars spin silent,
Watching,
Observing.

An era,
A season,
The harvest of the past.
