18.3.12

Goods by Wendell Berry


It's the immemorial feelings

I like the best: hunger, thirst,

their satisfaction; work-weariness,

earned rest; the falling again

from loneliness to love;

the green growth the mind takes

from the pastures in March;

the gayety in the stride

of a good team of Belgian mares

that seems to shudder from me

through all my ancestry.
