greenbelt: travelling light

Travelling light.

A Poem by Irish poet & bridge-builder
Pádraig Ó Tuama on Greenbelt’s theme:

Because sometimes we

travel heavy

and those heady times we

can barely

imagine the freebody

movement of

dance.

 

Because sometimes we

travel dark

and from those hard paths we

can’t even

conjure an image of

sunrise

or moonrise

or starlight

or fire.

 

Because sometimes we

travel solo

and those lonely times we

forget all the others

we’ve travelled with

lovingly

travelled with

home.

 

Because sometimes we

need to be

travelling lightly

because sometimes we’re in need of

regular reminding

that light comes in circles

and waves

and small moments

and light

comes to find us

and light comes with hope.
