Zarathustran Fantasy

I pedal over damp roadways
Sunset down below
Sandhill crane
Assertive raccoon
Beige fields reflection guide

Without higher and lower
Windblown eyes
Herds of anxious deer
Casual cow blank stares
Breathing deep clear air

Nature's bliss feeds retirement dreams
Gliding among calmer creations
Civilization yet beckons back
Smiles and love
My flock's embrace

Bird song silence
Dusk falls heavy
Pinkish glow turns yellow
Chest emanates heat
Warm waking dreams of tomorrow

Greatness prison
I've tunneled out
Passionate play
Of infinite game
Recurrence embrace

Flat tire reminds
Control's futility
Come with me anyway
Wherever we go
Without hurry or fear
