Shannon Grissom - Beyond The Valley

Symphony of Grass

She strolls through the valley
Surrounded by tall grass

She has errands to run
Tasks to finish

Mischievous breeze teases
At play with the grass
She joins the dance

With both her hands askew
She languidly brushes
Along the surface

The grass gently bends at her touch
Each blade seeking her attention
She smiles at the feathery feel

Caught up in their melodic movement
She conducts a symphony of grass
Keeping tempo with the breeze

And seemingly much too soon
She is through the tall grass

With one last look back
A moment to pause
And she smiles…

The tall grass waves goodbye
She knows she must return
To take a moment to play

But now, she is on her way
Beyond the Valley
