Breathing Room

A gift like no other
Another kind of making space 
For clarity,
Like light, it seeks 
All of its rays, answering 
Such questions as
Why not?
The fields along I-90
Upstate glowed gold,
A pale ethereal, 
Vast in formative, familiar vista, 
But underground sublime
In geologies of ice and lakes
And another time along the 
Lake, cast up from eastern
Morning storm, a grey pearl 
Pink thrown to the sky from water. 
What I needed, what was 
Answered, a way to keep
On moving,
Whole.
