I tend the fields until they are ready;
All day I turn over the soft soil,
All day I keep the horses going steady,
Now my work is almost done, my toil,
...
All of a sudden it lunged at me
This huge black beast
Growling and fiercely terrifying,
Its razor sharp claws,
...
I have fifty in my sight.
Say that's one a week
For fifty weeks -
That's not too ambitious;
...
Keep me in your heart,
Till I or love are gone,
Then let me out
Like a homeless tear,
...
Then in September
When the first leaves fell,
Soft and graceful,
You came down
...
