Abiding by the Dirt and Grass

The seasons shift as they go on,

one rain, one snow and not much sun.

The horses in the field are living

with their numbered days to entertain.

One rain one snow and not much sun,

we sit on the haystack and count the hours,

homage we give to the numbered days.

The dead old grass gives way to new beginnings

but we sit on the haystack and count our days;

clouds taint the sky.

The dead old grass gives way to new beginnings,

and the once powerful horses grow weary.

The clouds taint our sky,

but we fixate on the field--

the once powerful horses grow weary,

rolling and dwelling in stagnance.

About the Creator

isa

There was a young man named Bob

who desperately needed a job.

Everywhere he looked

said they were booked,

so he searched for a bank to rob.
