We can stop and see the leaves stretched out above our head Our heads are not so high And it's only ground we tread My favorite part of life Just to breathe As I lay and watch the stars I feel the ground beneath Connecting me We can stop and see the leaves But what's connecting me Like roots spread out in all directions Our heads are not so high It's the simple ground we tread And in the soil Our lives we toil Yes our blood is in the soil And I just breathe I thank God for food to eat I feel the ground beneath As I lay and watch the stars Stretched out above our heads Our dreams are powerful It's the simple ground we tread My favorite part of life Connecting me The stars up high in heaven The roots of mighty tree And I just breathe Our lives we toil I thank God for food to eat And in the soil

Ode to the ground
The job of the heart A constant throb Mere kernels until all is cob The swab of eyes Please do advise Popeyes That savory smell In a crunchy shell A munchy crisp Misspelt in emotion Chunky potatoes drizzled in gravy Honey drenched on top of biscuits Mac & cheese Taking apart the sorrow of that cob like heart Even if for a while Least the stomach feels better
