Notes About The Poem

Buried in the Sand

Wouldn't it be great 
if all this oil ran out
No brush cutters, lawn mowers
or blowers about

 Today it's Easter Sunday
on the edge of a large town
There's stillness and calmness
the decibel level decidedly down

The birds they are a'chirping 
leaves are rustling in the breeze
The flowing bubbly sound of our nearby creek
all designed to calm the soul if you please

The revival of community
all together lend a hand
Gather fresh organic home grown food 
heads no longer buried in the sand
