Have You Ever Heard
Have you ever heard
The whistle of air
Around quiet hills
As the breezes dare
Move over the fields
Turned a luscious green
By the folly play
Of the sun and rain
Battling for the gain
Of a longer stay?
Have you ever heard
The groaning of earth
Like a sole cello
Feeling the sorrow
Of its loneliness
Suddenly regressed
By the sound of feet
In the evergreens
That begin its wake
To life to partake?
Have you ever heard
The sound of water
Like light play of keys
As it finally
Breaks through the surface
Downhill it races
A river is born
That feeds fields of corn
Dancing in the sun
While birds sing their fun?
Have you ever heard
The music of fire
As it bursts laughing
Crackling sparks inside
A warm fireplace where
A family shares
Hot, grilled marshmallows
As they play Uno.
The circle of love,
Miracle of life.
