Analysis of Eyes

Sara Lang 1980 (Medina)



I close my eyes
And could hear the pines
To no surprise
Birds singing their lines
The smell of sweet grass
And the evergreens
A small mushroom mass
The bees helping their queens
All the wild flowers
The distant lilac trees
I could sit here for hours
Closed eyes one truly sees
