Poets, Painters and Musicians

Over the water

Into kitchens full of stories

Of wizards and witches

Weather gods

To set the farmers free


Land below the water line

Beyond the freedom fields

Laid to rest long before the winter

Fallow fields this year

Fallow folds appear


Our endless deserts

Lost of love

Unquestioning in haste

Wandering families; farmers

And gypsies, and bedouins in transit


Land above the waste line

Beyond the freedom fields

Stay unblessed long before

The sun-cracked earth came this year

For earth fractures to re-appear


Over all our homelands

Care is overflowing, falling over with love

Innocent children are hopeful

Of life itself as discovered by poets and painters

And musicians,  all who are really just ordinary people
