For Where You Are Going by Catherine Zickgraf

For Where You Are Going

This shell came from the waves 

in curves and sapphire shades

with maps in the iridescence 

to help you navigate.

Here’s a pillowcase to catch the clouds

and glide wind-blown with the current.

Search always the soft line of horizon

by the star that glows at noon. 

Though you leave me to sail the sparkling azure

and disappear in sky and wide-open ocean,

I will wait for you at the edge of day.

May you make your own joy and swim away.   © Catherine Zickgraf
