(For Penelope and Odysseus)

fair Penelope of yore
done and undone tapestry
home lights of Ithaca
Frame her but the Voice

Names her Lifts her in its
Quietude a pin drop thunder
to an Echo of a Whisper
her name doth call carried

aloft past Wind Rain and Squall
above crashing waves of
roaring surf clear heard
that Echo of a Whisper known

her name spoken soft as velvet rose
feels the Voice in Heart near
or Worlds away he calls to her
saying only "I am, coming Home"

"Hope is like a lighthouse keeper's beam" (Klaatu)
