(Swans - November 17, 2008)  

Far out at sea
the Sun breaks through the clouds
and illuminates
a small patch of ocean,
like an idea,
or a bit of luck,
or a smile.
No one can know
where the next break might come,
and so we stand a lonely vigil,
out on the cliff we call life,
hoping to see the light
even once again.
