Ablaze, behind,
the sun-drunk sky
lights gravel, crunched
beneath. I fly
down country road
to home and bed,
with thankful heart
in beats of red-
tinged revelry.
Sweet Spring, so dear,
I sense your lip
upon my ear.
You whisper,
“I am near” with tease
of every touch
of Kansas breeze.
I ride toward home
with sun-drenched back
and joy of life,
for ‘naught I lack
when eyes can see
and ear can hear
such beautied shadow
painted clear
of majesty.
I thank my God
my Maker, true
for rain-drenched sod
and rainbow hues.
A country ride
to close the day.
In Him abide.
Amen, I pray.
