William Otto Poet Free verse

A Summer's Moment

The call of the Lark
 And the Red-Winged Blackbird
          The rustle of grass
        Over my left shoulder
                      And
                 Before us
          The rippling brook
       The shimmering trees
                      And
     The depth of you silence
                   As you
              Not far away
       Think on other things

     This I take back with me
      To the noise of the city
