Prairie Sweep of wind and sigh of grass. Watching while cloud shadows pass. Islands on a tawny sea, Floating far away from me. Here I stand, beneath a sky Big and bold, where eagles fly. From their vantage point, they may, Plummet down to catch their prey. When the wind drops, you can hear Silence crash against your ear. Everywhere you look, you see, Prairie to infinity!

I remember the infinity of prairies. Now in our valley we are surrounded by mountains but both vistas have their beauty. Joyce |

a lovely description of a beautiful part of our great country. Someday I would like to see it at my leisure. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

I enjoy reading your observations of our great land. This one is so peaceful [as long as I am not the eagle’s prey]. Thanks, Melton |
