Sunday

I walked by soft-blossomed hedgerows and pink-soiled fields,

Where once I lifted straw bales under scorching summer sun,

Watched by scornful crows and sentinel clouds drifting

Across evening's azure skies, detached from the world beneath.

Later, we drank and ate and shared our stories, laughing and

Listening to music as we wondered when it would all end;

And, as I left under starlight, I felt a familiar sadness fall.
