The field is filled
with what we see
without sleep.
Never completely
closed, it quickly erodes
when tilled before rain.
If clogged with boulders
it won't be razed
and once burdened
cannot quicken
under flocks.
The field reveals
glint and holds
leaning, pulls
twist from taut
knots of buds.
We watch the field
for stirring, wait
for stems to spring
back from sparrows.
We hope for a swell
in its middle so
we can say we saw
the sway that comes
from noticing.
Water meanders
to prairie potholes,
throws cordgrass
into switchbacks
as we push past
bramble and scare
a whistling wheel
of geese into air.
The field draws
hawks and sides
of trains, cradles
pools from storms
where ducks plumb
for water ...
