Denver

I have been moving 
like a rolling tumbleweed 
for so many years 
after my marriage ended
once roots are ripped 
from one’s life’s earth
there is no where 
to be so roll
you do on and
on over and under 
until at last you 
stop or something stops
for me it was 
the Rocky Mountains for 
they’re bigger than me 
and in Denver I 
took root once again 
finding the fertile ground 
of my own happiness 
and of peace serenity 
harmony of heart and 
the love of friends
