Broad Horizon
Stillness of snow covered prairie
seeps into weary bones
solitude's silence once again
draws out cluttered thoughts
Western Nebraska's broad horizons
swallow up the day's worries
burden laid upon yoke
refreshing inner calm
Fingers of snow drifts iced over
protrudes along property line
chaos of wind driven fury resisted
lover's warmth melts the sting
Intimacy's embrace in oneness
under brisk open sky
restores sense of oneness
emptiness absorbs all dissonance
Renews what's been taken
refills what's been freely given
peace washes fluidly beneath
broad horizon's invitation
Leaving soft pastel colors
brushed upon once heavy memories
transforming the meaning
of what has been
