But sometimes I bring out the courage in you.

A Harvest Sown and Reaped

A harvest sown and reaped on the same day
In an unplowed field,

Is useless and yet
The staple of nations.

A war.

An Eye In A Blue Face

An eye in a blue face
Saw an eye in a green face.
‘That eye is like this eye’
Said the first eye,
But in a low, not high place.

The sun shining on daisies.
