Close to Heart

In a field, on a farm,
Where I grew up
There is a grove.

I'm not there often
Visits are rare if at all
But I will always remember it.

The tall, straight, perfect trees
The still, damp, cool air.
The mosquitoes heard but never felt
The frogs feasting on the flying fiends

I may leave,
Go far away and not return
but I will always remember
The grove,
Where I grew up,
On a Farm, In a field.
