2 Ahau
Yellow Lunar Sun
Prior to Sight comes Sound
Hoof Beats like Heart-beats on
Blacktop –
Horse and Rider bound
For Work or Home---
Seeking Sustenance as the Sun
Reaches Zenith---sere and severe
Clip-clop/ clip-clop / clip-clop---
A Brown sorrel Mare moves into View
With a side-saddled Shepherd
shouting, “Yasu!”
“Yasu!
Πώς
είσαι?” I respond---
He tips his Hat to me
Finally, bringing up the Rear
In this Ionian Cavalcade
A creamy Labrador Retriever
Panting in Anticipation and Thirst---
She knows that in the final Reckoning---
The Last shall be the First.
