I had a dream or so I thought,
of a journey to a distant path.
The earth spiraled upward, steep and hard,
the forest stood naked of forage,
it seemed vast, standing tall.
Around the next curve
I saw hundreds of owls perched,
snowy white kissed with the color of earth,
one thought raced through my head.
This is a sign …..to heed all,
thing will change within the next snow fall.
Then I saw hundreds of pelican flocked below
they beaks were open but empty for show.
I then peered over the cliff's edge of insist,
below was the ocean with sprays of mist.
It left me to wonder why the hunger, why the fear,
when the ocean of salvation was so near?
