| Prairie Sanctuary |
| O! How i weep for you my prairie grasses As I Look over your parched fields I feel your desires for more of heavanly waters to come down. All my life I placed my soul amid you I too grow with you bloom with you and die with you. O! How much of myself I see in you I am the only one here in this town who walks amid your golden grasses 'For when a poet enters a land he becomes the author of its soil. O! how i compose about you my precious stemmed grasses. You and i are one complete in earthlife union. Just like you i sow my seeded desires unto the prevailing winds. Letting them freely go where they may Knowing not their fate? I find freedom here I find myself amid your windblown seeds. As I walk amid you I feel I am in a spiritual dream I hear a heartsong calling out to me here it echoes from my hearts violin as the winds carry it a way. I find sanctuary here in the solitude of your presence in me |
