Moving Forward, by Kimberly Ray

Treading forward,
 wind pushing against my back

Finding a grip in the blowing sand
 Gust ripping and I’m alone again

Ruminating about the sunset
 What I'll see if I continue moving
 Head down, pushing against the wind
 Marching forward, finding where I’ll begin

I will get my way

Taking fate by the hand

I will see my sunset someday

Making my way across this historic land
