Entering Rolling Hills

Andrew Joseph Dotson 1989 (Rita, Cadiz, Andalucia)



Entering rolling hills,
To feel the stillness and serenity
The farms scattered in the green,
The soft wind blowing in the trees
The prairie silent in the night,
The moon full and in my sight,
The lambs are resting in the field,
The pond, black, no sight.
