Nomad: By Faith: Prayers and Poetry

-->

Nomad

Was it hard to awake

every morning to an

unfamiliar atmosphere

whether wind or bird or scent?

Groggily leave life-long

territory, childhood memories,

well-worn paths walked

even in sleep.

Focus now on present terrain

geographic manual

newly minted.

Wonder at nomad lifestyle.

Psalm 104:10, “He sends for the springs in the valleys; They flow between the mountains;”
