and we gathered
not knowing quite what for
we’d read the signs
upon our doors
we set our clocks
as the message said
we left our shoes
under our beds

i feared that i
might be the only one to come
but slowly they arrived
in threes and twos and ones
lights of nearby houses
lit our faces in the dark
twenty-five or thirty
we gathered in the park
we stood together
all waiting for a sign
sharing food that we had cooked
and bottles of red wine
standing next to strangers
all seeking something more
recognizing neighbors
never spoken to before

and we waited
the silence seemed to grow
but still we waited
though for what we did not know
and as we waited
one by one we heard the sound
until everyone was listening
it was rising all around us

and she arrived
bare feet and lightness in her stride
head to toe in cloths of grey
and kindness in her eyes more than words could ever say

and she spoke
standing underneath a tree of oak
convincing us that we are all the same
recounting all her life but never telling us her name
and she sat
down with us all on the grass
she held out her hand
and she spoke a word that none of us could understand

and she rose
above the ground
above the sound
she took our fear

and she disappeared
