The Myths

Do not forsake
The wisdom of the moment
Keep hold of the present

Memories remain
To reshape our understanding
Of the the next step in time
We walk along the same path
The trail reminds

We go, as if we are breaking ground
But we do not break the crust
In passages and myths and memories
We trust

The only connection
That is true
Between the wrestling
Of the yesterday and the present
Lies inside of me and you

We cannot shy away from
This admission
Embrace the present
With forgiveness

Sit tall in the saddle
Accept where we're from
And, when the moment's right,
The myths will come

@stray_shooter Thanks, Ron! South Kaibab trail on the way up from Phantom Ranch, by mule. Unbelievably gorgeous! Simon, our wrangler, is the most interesting, kind and gentle of a man. Sending him this picture, as he names the ranges :)
