REWARD

Posted on June 22, 2025 by | 1 Comment

Dawn near the Solstice, shadows
seem to shrink in the same places
on the hillsides where cattle graze

towards midday shade, oblivious
to the hackneyed news of war
‘to end all wars’ my whole lifetime

promising everlasting peace—
one way or another now
on the cusp of my reward.
