The retired farmer sits in his rocking chair
Thinking of days no longer there -
Not really wishing for them again
Just remembering way back when
...
Do not speak to me of enduring
as I
run down a wooded path
walk up a mountain trail
...
As a bride I arrived
to the land of sagebrush
where coyotes howled
Mexican music played
...
I pour coffee
As day breaks
To meditate and pray
Alone with Him.
...
Desolate on a winter night
The sea roars on
I never expected this sight
The boardwalk gone.
