Primal Wealth
21 Jun 99

First cutting hay fills the barn,
its wondrous scent softens smiles
On those who enter and know
Its meanings and echoes.

Bakeries of fresh bread delight,
Do not suffer in the comparison,
Yet have not the sense of primal wealth
As stacks of pale green dried timothy.

It is not just the rich hedonism
That odor and its memory ripples,
But images of the spells of winter snows
Deterred by the amulet power of a barnful of hay.

There is magic in the hay,
A calming quiet in its presence.
Horse becomes contented monk
From the charms of dried grass.
