Remember Serbian Fields

The storms are lifting now,
where once the auburn horizons clashed with dark,
where mother led her children to drink,
where father broke the moistened dirt,
where I spoke of the bent little days;
there are no storms that we can touch,
nor the candle beside our bed; there are no monsters
that I am aware, I only know there could have been.

Well penned Collin! The awareness of how things are, and how things could have been, and how things could indeed become is what serves as a guide to human beings in this whirlwind world. Very nicely done!
