I took the dog for a walk at Port Hudson
The tide was out
We love this spot where mama G and the Capt. lived for years in their RV.
At the waters edge with views of distant snow covered mountains
Big clouds roll by some dark with wet drops of life
Birds on the shoreline
Rocks mixing with sand
Smells of tide, seaweed, and crab shells
I stood in the beauty when I heard a woman singing
In the distant
In the wind
An earth song of love and pain coming from deep inside
And for a moment I felt a time before now
When this beautiful place belonged to those who had always been here
Before a thousand mes came and changed it
When man lived with the earth and the wind and the sun and the moon
And the sea
Talked to the clouds, whispered to the birds
Blessed the fish, the water, the abundance
Just for a moment
I remembered
And I stood here
And I was there
