green,
o green

but the sun
it sucks me
brown and yellow

I want to say
I love you
when I no longer
need you

I am the sweet grass
that can only dance
when my hands
are empty

Good to read your powerful words again...

GAWD I love this, especially the imagery of the last stanza.

Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world!

Love the analogy here.  

Sure wish we'd get a little rain.  Too much sun ain't good.

Anthony~
Your penning intrigues me ... I like this and yet I'm not even sure why~
Does that make ANY sense to you?

Well ... that's my story and it's sticking to me~
