Turkey Vultures

Standard

One morning, when I was staying up country in a valley of the Manzano Mountains, I got up early to see the sun rise. I went out on the deck, and as I looked across the field, I saw about a dozen turkey vultures, each perched on a fence post.

They stood with wings outstretched, unmoving, waiting to catch the sun’s rays, to warm their wings. It was a surreal sight, as if they were caught in a moment of worship.

It made me think of turkey vultures differently, to feel a kinship with them. We both were in that moment to appreciate something ancient and foundational that is rejuvenating to something deep within us. For that moment, we were worshiping at the same church.

Now when I see them surrounding road kill, I don’t go, “Ew-w-w!”

Don’t be distracted by this one small existence in this one wrinkle of time. Look beyond it. Gather your connections. Meet us at the Void. A conversation is called for.

All of a sudden, we all turn our heads to the clearing in front of us, as if there’s been a signal. I know the clearing is going to come alive. And it does.
