A million clovers dancing at my feet,
my foolish heart missed cavorting bees;
deer so close I could almost pet,
but my blind and deaf heart
steered my eyes inside instead.

A shadow whizzed by, big as a hawk;
with my heart seeing now, I gawked
at the swallow so tiny, so small,
like me, just a part;
I’m a clover dancing, that’s all.

When the wind sang all the way in,
rubbing and begging
my deaf and blind heart,
today’s blessing of sun and wind
forced, shoving my sagging will
to renew what I knew grew
strong, long ago, at the start.

A million clovers dancing at my feet,
my foolish heart missed cavorting bees;
deer so close I could almost pet,
but my blind and deaf heart
steered my eyes inside instead.

A shadow whizzed by, big as a hawk;
with my heart seeing now, I gawked
at the swallow so tiny, so small,
like me, just a part;
I’m a clover dancing, that’s all.
