| Fallow Fields from The Promise of all Living A whistling wind brought dancing on its twirling toes the light yet pregnant autumn chill; pregnant with frozen winter's promise of heavy cold. And dead leaves a dance of death did make o'er fallow ground. Some were tricked to see the image of infertility . . . But in the autumn dust, under the leaves and the whistling wind, all the seeds, all the seeds were waiting. Nothing is ever fallow except, at times, the human mind which cannot grasp fertility. And there are no pauses ever in the lithe and joyful dance of life. (C) 2000, Walter William Melnyk All Rights Reserved Please do not save or copy without written permission. |
