A FEW BITS AND PIECES

 

 

Like melting snow within his grasp

his fire held no fuel.

 

 

Dreams drawn on stone in chalk

are washed away when troubles rain.

 

 

 

On valley floors and sunlit plains.

where shadows of the clouds roam free

the yellow shine of buttercups

in swaying waves of uncut grass.

 

 

A bud úpon the tree of life

gives proof of hope in morning light.
