Fly Above (Stacy Wills, 2013)
3" x 4 1/2" alcohol inks on yupo
I am returning home
after being away...
I am met
with
exquisite silence.
The wrinkles of
brain and brow
begin to smooth...
soothed
by the comforting hand
of the familiar.

Breath prayers

Birds, old friends,
come to call.
How long has it been?
How long?
O blessed communion
of I and thou...
the sweetest homecoming
of all.
