Up Against Grass

UP AGAINST GRASS

I walked the usual walk many times 
this walk had been different today

sensing a direction,  I felt to stop 
to see at something so little

realizing nature clearly was speaking 
moving and pushing with the wind

as I got closer they seemed to get taller
strips of green captivating and waving  

pointed bodies of green valleys  
small or tall, new and broken

some seem sad and even dying
with shades of brown and yellow. 

I would notice tons way out there.
as I stood back looking at shades of fullness 

so many bundles in groups of gathering
like an audience awaiting

In the light they are transparent 
concentrating true lines of greatness.  

everyone should see such a site  
they would move left to right while playing 

sharing a gleam of sunlight
called a stage in the spotlight 

a delicate performance of dancing
gifted little ones that leave us in amazement 

will always fine them  free or hiding
in any place, at any time, and anywhere

A Walk

A WALK…….

When I see a pathway.
I get to pick which side.
He will meet you always halfway.
Pretty flowers of nature in all its glory.
His way of taking a walk next to us.
Prayers are thoughts in a story.
Our father wants our trust.
His way to guide you to that place.
You can talk, he will listen. 
Can’t thank of a better space.
