Dawnings

Sometimes I wonder

By Nicholas Hooper

Sometimes I wonder where he is
Lost in a sea of suppositions, perhaps

There’s a bird singing a solo in the dark
Is that a sign?

The possibilities of the day
echo down time and bring
something new
every time

and there’s a chance that he’s here
comforting and helping me up

Stiff knees on a dark day
and I can only ask
where are you?
