Fallow Way |
I’ll learn to love the fallow way |
When winter draws the valley down |
And stills the rivers in their storm |
And freezes all the little brooks |
Time when our steps slow to the song |
Of falling flakes and crackling flames |
When silver stars are high and still |
Deep in the velvet of the night sky |
The crystal time the silence times |
I’ll learn to love their quietness |
While deep beneath the glistening snow |
The black earth dreams of violets |
I’ll learn to love the fallow way |
I’ll learn to love the fallow way |
When all my colors fade to white |
And flying birds fold back their wings |
Upon my anxious wondering’s |
The sun has slanted all her rays |
Across the vast and harvest plains |
My memories mingle in the dawn |
I dream a joyful vagabonds |
The crystal times the silence times |
I’ll learn to love their quietness |
When deep beneath the glistening snow |
The black earth dreams in of violets |
I’ll learn to love the fallow times |
No drummer comes across the plains |
To tell of triumph or of pain |
No word far off battle’s cry |
To draw me out or draw me nigh |
I’ll learn to love the fallow way |
I’ll learn to love the fallow way |
And gather in the patient fruits |
And after autumns blaze and burn |
I’ll know the full still, deep roots |
That nothing seem to know or need |
That crack the ice in frozen ponds |
And slumbering in winter’s folds |
Have dreams of green and blue and gold |
I’ll learn to love the fallow way |
And listening for blossoming |
Of my own heart once more in spring |
As sure as time, as sure as snow |
As sure as moonlight, wind and stars |
The fallow time will fall away |
The sun will bring an April day |
And I will yield to Summer’s way |
