gathered among the hay,
graced with stems of clover,
blessed on a mild Sunday.
Bring me stones from the creekbed
where salamanders run wild
polished smooth and guileless
as the devotion of a child.
Bring me childlike wonders.
Let me receive them with joy.
Make my perceptions pristine
as a scrape kneed, scapegrace boy.
