The Mesa


Bringing my car
to a stop

along Interstate 70
near Fruita

Colorado a partly
cloudy sky

near the end
of a long winter

a distance
yet to the Utah

border by the
roadside I exit

the car to get
a better view of

the snowy mesa
a few miles

to the north
years ago that was

sometime 1993
and thinking back

I am sure that
mesa still stands

tall snowy top
and all

not me however
I am no longer

anywhere near
I took a picture

early spring then
breath-taking

and brilliant
in remembering

-30-
