I scan the water like eagle,
looking for the tide within the tide,
her presence in the sea.
When she asks what I want
I will say to be here
and she will smile,
finding beauty in the wave,
knowledge in silence,
joy on hummingbird wings.

    This is how the transformation happens.

  3. Don: Precise, simple, illuminating.

    And, The Irish Girl is a work of wisdom and grace. Not a comma should ever be changed.
