Celebrating Daughter-Becky's farm purchase

Kiss-me Darlin’-(Baur-farm song)
 
Awake me Darlin’! Time to kiss new sun
Pink-dawn has drifted-off and now is done
Let’s adventure-run and play to have great-fun
Another beauty day-of-chance at-life has just begun
 
Dance me through the meadow-dew of emerald-green
Stately forest-pine needle-carpet quiet-softness scene
Fish-breach wispy corkscrew-tendrils surface silver-sheen
Dragonfly tease bull frog as red-winged blackbirds preen
 
Soars suave black-shadow streak Zorro-horse design
Stride cross-country canter with Skippy-friend equine
Pistola-Anna urge-Lightning to beyond a “wild”-resign
Sophisticated-Lauren sails fences with abandon-refine
 
And, simple-humble I to easy-Proud with Love-observe
Lexi-Lu saddled-up to chase with laughter haste-reserve
Tidy-quiet acreage-plot whitetail deer and game preserve
Even I---might plant another tree…if only just to conserve
 
Landscape-pretty now the tundra-calling mid-west farmer-boy
Fly-fish shy Red-Ear, seek-out some wild-Morel, sniff air for joy
Tame me wild-beast heart to tender Love-in-nature time employ
Transgress: Be I chronological-“Senior”; Confess: Life be me Toy!
 
On stony-ridge tree-pines above the waves silver-dancing lake
A makeshift “kitchen”-outdoors for delicious bar-b-que bake
4-stones hold a grate red-hot of teasing hardwood flames-sake
Gathered kin to share a sacred-day of Love-surround partake
 
Yonder! Across the dale quick-slide abandon-wild the creek
Cabin-size rocks natural-cascade spring-water babble-sneak
Embrace-wild yon whisper-wind unsuited for frontiersman-weak
Courage! Pilgrim! Scripture-promise: Earth inherited by the meek!
 
Marching-sun warms earth-bounty fresh in mid-night Cool!
And, I return to “roots” in-land still un-educated “Fool”!?
Happy-times just might be simple-found: 40-acres and a mule
Allow that humble-I be like friend Mother-Nature: Never cruel!
 
Azure-sky more blue each ‘morrow come cerulean-clear
Allow! Respect! Enjoy! White-clouds bring rain to cheer
And, I, in me element of Life! Space! Love! Absent any fear
Listen! Thee! With me. Soft whisper-wind serenade to hear
