(A Patch)

–

Stepped into the sunlight

Tall grass around me

Imagined if I were to right

My world as the soil below me

–

I might grow for a time

Feeling sunlight’s energy

I may understand the sublime

Nature of life’s synergy

–

A long time ago

A good friend of mine

Suggested that when I go

Into the woods sometime

–

A rock, a branch, a blade of grass

To ponder a time to realize

How special this that will not last

Can be in a certain moment wise

–

And with each season

We are likely reborn

With all the new reason

As were our lives borne

–

For now in this moment in this quiet thatch

I lose myself assured within Nature’s patch.
