Where is the meadow lark?

Face the wind to know the day
And hear the sounds that come.
Watch the sun how meadows stay,
And follow its succumb.

Mind the wind it speaks to you.
Know the sounds it tell.
Watch the lacy meadows flow,
And you will hear it well.

Hark the meadow lark, a key
Mark it well where it lay.
Know the song is given free
And leads you on your way.

I wonder here in time delay
My own Eden garden
And pray each night it ever stay.
Solace of my pardon.

Your pardon lays within your hand.
And reached by anyone
Follow the trill to meadow land,
And there will shine the sun.

So listen to the wind and mark,
The singing of the meadow lark.

Beautiful song!

Seymour -

I know I heard the meadowlark,
singing in this rhyme.
So shrill,
the trill ...
sung for all time.

You cannot hide,
little meadowlark ...
upon your song I find,
a melody,
sung sweetly to me
of another place, another time.

Sy,
Just like the Whispering Rain you wrote
The meadow lark sings out to me
So sweet a voice and music fine
Exquisite peaceful melody
And I can only now repeat
The very words, the same refrain
This poem deserves exactly what
I wrote at end of Whispering Rain
