Severance
Posted on | June 30, 2007 | 4 Comments
In the words of Dead Can Dance:
Severance,
The birds of leaving call to us,
Yet here we stand
Endowed with the fear of flight.
Overland
The winds of change consume the land,
While we remain
In the shadow of summers now past.
When all the leaves
Have fallen and turned to dust,
Will we remain
Entrenched within our ways.
Indifference,
The plague that moves throughout this land
Omen signs
In the shapes of things to come.
Tomorrow’s child is the only child
**** we are leaving in an hour or so. I know I was supposed to meet some of you for breakfast, but the odds and ends called and we had to finish cleaning. I had a long list of goodbyes to say. But Anne put it best last night, it’s not really good bye, just see you later. Later depends upon all of us…. I will do my best.
I’ve shed some tears. Expected, I guess.
I will update the blog on our journey, take lots of pictures, and call or text you crazy folk when I can. There was a thunderstorm this morning and someone said that “Orlando weeps because you go”… I wept a little myself.
Blessed be…

Florida was giving you a final weather experience…it almost knew it would be a long time before you would hear the sweet rolls of thunder across the sky…we will need to make trips in search of a good storm from time to time…or relish in the one or two we get here in Portland.
