Sheep Pastures

Out of the noise and clamor of the town.
I have come down
To this green pasture land where sheep
Gaze in the golden light.

Where shadows creep,
As deliberately as they, across the grass.
The slow hours pass,

And I am one with the rhythm and the rhyme
Of this still land, this quiet time;

Even my hurrying heart has stayed its pace
Within this quiet place.
