High above the street
Waving to Robert
As the train gathers speed
From a window seat
Waving to Robert
Eyes staring out ahead
Hard to say at what
Waving to Robert
On the hillside where I lost him
Branches closed like lashes across his naked back
When next my breath obscured the view with clouds
A pewter sky stabbed by pines and not a single track
Unblinking in the moment
Scanning for his movement
Wind in the treetops waving to Robert
Cricket at my anklebone
Please perform a service
Alert his network to his flying if you will
That I might track his progress
Send me word when you see him
And I’ll be there to meet him
Face to face, waving to Robert
