Covered with clover, the field's as green as a sea, buzzing sharp with bees
A place to gather words before they get lost.
Covered with clover, the field's as green as a sea, buzzing sharp with bees
A heart of purple blooms in the back of the yard; Morning Glory smiles
A smell of sweetness - the wild vines of late August when grapes break their skin
Relentless chirper, you hide behind the thicket of things, loud cricket
In early morning, coolness flows, hours before the sun has woken
for Algot
Like light bulbs dangling off the branches in sunlight; soft little lanterns
Someone's inked the stars on the sky again tonight - the Milky Way shines
slow is wandering, the wandering, the wading through an old oak forest, the waking up and waking up inside the wondering of where this overgrown trail leads, if it might lead forward forever and ever and ever on your mind is time, and how slow is

Sink your tongue and teeth into the skin of the peach, ripened perfection
Trod your way, softly - the pasture's quiet at night though some creatures wake
