A field laced with morning dew
Greeted my walk today
I wanted to linger – make it hold
But I could not stay
As I stood there, leaning in
I tried my best to hear
Hoping it would have the words
To always keep me near
It seemed to say in other ways
The callings of my heart
Yet I knew with grown up mind
The truths were miles apart
It said it would go its way
It would have to pass
And though it’s gone from daily frame
In my mind, it lasts.
