sailed we far and long
a hundred nights on end
we read ourselves
mind and body mend
we split the glassy sea
with eternity contend
we stand and drink
healing Solar gleam
we draw from mortal well
sky paints itself with dream
the wind whispered in my ear
soothed my newborn skin
leaves rustled me to life
fireflies danced their little language
cattail cities tall
crickets greet the Autumn dusk
and so sang the pilgrims,
Farmer Pilgrim Harvest Prayer
"O Green, Mother dear,
Bless the dirt next year
Kiss the earth with flood
Drown it in terrestrial blood."
