Notes About The Poem

The Green Grass Sways

The green grass sways
While the melody from the lone piper plays

And the crickets and the owls patiently wait 
For the intro to their stanza by the old creaky gate

The blue summer skies reach up high without a care
While the earth worries incessantly and is constantly aware

But, the cows are hardly moving and the flowers are still
While time passes slowly out here on the hill
