Expunge that which with heavy hand
Lay across this fertile land
Obscure remembrances exist
From time distilled as drops of mist

On fields of green grass memories
Dispelled as light warms morning breeze
I seek for greater clarity
And pluck one blade from emerald sea

Inhale the scent of pre-dawn air
Transcend this plane of mortal cares
Prismatic orbs refract sun's light
An instant then are gone from sight

Leaving but a piece of grass
And just another horse's a**

Enchanting verse, surprising ending.

Good poem, Doc - It works well - even without the horse...

You had me mesmorized through this poem, and then I felt I got hit in the head with a bat when I reached the conclusion. Maybe your intention, but my head hurts now...LOL

Well if I knew how they were going to turn out , they wouldn't be as much fun to write.
Oh and L.D. , sorry about your head !
