OVER THERE

 

Over there!

Where the wetsils grow wild and free
and
The cherrydills blossom at first dew.

Over there!

Where the bentlems bow to kiss the loam
and
Chastaleens toss their long shadow.

Over there!

Where the dockel climbs a rock
and

Fugett nourishes the earth.

Over there!

Where the starber sings of peace
and
The ashitte soothes the soul.

Over there!

Over there!  Can one be here
and
Yet, - over there?
