Sun Setting On Our Field, by Rainer
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

How
Did the rose
Ever open its heart

And give this world
All its
Beauty?

It felt the encouragement of light
Against its
Being,

Otherwise,
We all remain

Too

Frightened

Hey, look at all the clay about 4 feet underground!



We're only a few blocks from the Mad River...


...past the cow pasture.

Being uphill from the river probably 50 feet above sea level, the land here must have been part of a seismic shifting, leaving behind this great clay and a new path for the river.
