Three woman and a child stand as waves catch the light of the setting sun.
Sunset
A Boat on the Open Sea
Thirty Minutes
A Decision Made
With Care And Thought
. . .
I hear them talk of my future:
I think we should.
Another whispers:
And if they are returned?
We celebrate.
The waves against the boat that is my life, swell, and yet with those who choose their futures for a time with me, I stand, settled, still and tall as one against the storm.
