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
