Letting Go

It was not so much the forest I missed
but one certain tree
that smaller piece of me
had clawed his way up
cradled
by arms older and stronger than my own


An awkward bird
feeling the eagle inside
poised to fly
where such trees do not flourish
and I could not follow.

The image/analogy is great, Dennis. And I know the feeling well. From the day we send our child out to school for the very first time, to the day they are "released" to that new pair of arms...the wrenching is the same.
