The Landkeeper from Equus Asinus by Men I Trust

Morning dew on cherry trees
Fruits that carry tears
The soul and heart retrieves

So many stories, many deeds
About the man who grafted breeds
Instead of sowing seeds

And he lives on, in the land’s memories

I found myself, at home away from home
This soil, both far and known
The Sun intones as life and death goes on
The ground I thread around

Strong arms nurtured heart and kin
Care in every seed
Taught them how to grow within

Gentle hands that shaped the earth
Alive and gave it worth
With love, a lasting birth

I Found myself, at home away from home
This soil, both far and known
The Sun intones as life and death goes on
The ground I thread around
