cattle – Leaf And Twig

A Satisfaction

a contented lowing
released into the mist rise
of the morning

becoming one’s self
in the care and comfort
of his attention

the herd
dwarfed by trees
nature’s hierarchy of scale

mother and child
side by side
into the morning mist

fully
inhabited self
contradiction consummated

cattle graze
a meal that lasts
the day

each morning
sweet greetings
in the tender look

taking in sunshine
in the warmth
of each other

the grass is greener
right where you are

delicious is
the final feast
of fresh grass
