A crystal blue sky
Stretches endlessly
To the mountains
While the greening earth
Rolls upward
From rivers
Then down
Through valleys
Criss-crossed
With creeks
And dotted
With hardwoods.
Black-faced sheep
Graze contentedly
In a pasture
Of yellow flowers,
Watched over
By an aged shepherd
And his vigilant collies.
“The woman or man who is a poet, or fiction writer, or playwright, or all of these, is engaged constantly in a jazz ballet of vocabularies, passions, genders, histories, perspectives, death, love, and life. The music of revelation announces itself to
Be always safe,
Karen
be well and happy,
Kathy
Stunningly imaged in verse, especially,
"While the greening earth
Rolls upward
From rivers
Then down
Through valleys
Criss-crossed
with creeks ...."
Reminds me of what Ireland or Scotland must be like. Ah, yes - there are the patient sheep. :) Right beautiful!!
