Wild Grasses, A Poem Composed by Ryan Quinn Flanagan 

Wild Grasses

A Poem Composed by Ryan Quinn Flanagan  

The giant doors

to the great library

are opened.

There is delight

in sun-swum walls.

The unkeeled pitch

of wild grasses.

A breeze

behind the ears.

To feel pure for that –

that is Love.
