Old
Sol dances in his fields
brilliant
yellow
in
celebration
on
royal blue
at
eternity’s edge
prelude
to forever
Beneath
life’s boughs I lie
and
gaze through
to
an endless ocean
living sea of light
waves
of colour
breaking
on the shore
splashing
off the world
frolicking
on me
and beside
flowing
like
waves in the bay
glinting
in
the sun
Between
the branches
on
bare and
budding
twigs
birds
carol the wind
which
holds the dance
they
wild gambol
across
the skies
specks
against infinity
Down
in the distance
blue
rolling
billows
end
the basin
ancient
shadowed
ramparts
headed
t’ward
the stars
earth
taken along
not
reluctant
eager
Laughter
bubbles
with
leaping splash
entwined
narrow
ribbon of light
set
free
from
deepest
darkest
night
flowing
though the field’s
carpet
of colour
flowing
life
free
exuberant
wild
faithful
mirror
yet
untrue
In
joyful exaltation, the world returns to life
Life
- leaping from hill to hill, rolling through the plains
Spring has come, and its music for the soul
