The Sound of Grass Growing in the Night

by E&R Barrera

It echoes up to the night swallows in flight

who all watch the grass racing for new height

as they follow their instincts through the night

reaching for the morning light.

****

The faery folk they do bless

each blade of grass that does confess

"It is I who made this sound, by thumping,

stretching my roots under the ground."
