She and Me

November 24, 2013 Marcie Scudder

Solitary. Strong. Still. Neither perturbed or disturbed by the blustery wind..the frigid bite of the morning air.

For such a large bird...she appeared so infinitesimally small. In relation to the universe. In comparison to the greater whole.

So brave - I thought. To have ventured out there all alone. To begin- her day in just the same way as she always does. No matter what. No matter where. To begin - with the hope of finding sustenance....but without expectation that she might be so lucky.

I admired her self-discipline...her stoicism...her patience and perseverance. Her confidence. Nothing moved her. In between wind gusts - I was sure - I could hear her breathe.

She and me. Me and she. We were - in fact - the only ones up and awake. The only ones there to witness see. Is it possible that just the same thoughts I was thinking of she...she was thinking of me?

Found...and not lost. Alone...but not lonely. Quietly listening to the sound of the morning silence.
