Poem by Dan Rutberg, and Artwork by Fredric Sedgwick Lumina

**I.**  
*Dreams of your embrace*  
*Hoping for the sound of steps*  
*Heart full in memory*

---

**II.**  
*The morning air cool*  
*A young buck meets my still gaze*  
*Birds sing their sweet song*

---

**III.**  
*Hands at heart I bow*  
*My breathing the guide inside*  
*At one with the tide*
