The Purity Wheat Domain


Hectic red steadfast on earth and anchored fast

Caught in the beginning of the end of working days

To yield a common profit from the land as harvested

On beams of yellow sun light set in motion in the Spring


Beings on oceans of colors with orange poppy fields

That only feel the warmth of winds circumference

Along with golden wheat that is ready to be taken in

Before eaten by Winter strangers and their friends


In a spectacle of hills rolled up in evening green

Beds of vegetation dream of wheat in foreign lands

Under blankets of sky pulled up to open window ledges

A baker gives full attention to making bread


The aroma drifts to the seashore close

While Spring goes back to sleep at peace

And near enough to hear the ocean break

Collapsing waves upon the shells already there


Someone in the wooden cabin listens fervently

Watching out for Summer whispering in

An open vase or vessel fills with country air

Prepared to hold the flowers of the field


Cut with kindness ready for the dinner table

Bread and water are there for company

As well as comfort for some weary bones

An old couple still find romance in holding hands


Vast open lands that radiant with natures colors

Require receptacles made of clay to celebrate

To display the beauty of the day while saying grace


Wind and rain bring back the wheat fields from the past

Swaying flags of yellow gold on beams of light

Anchored from the soil up to the sky

Boundaries emergent to lift the fleeting eye


Flickering light might indicate the end of power

Only shade can hide a candle going out at night

In reference to the Purity Wheat Domain

It remains the same in brightness
