The peace of wild things


"Harbour"

"I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water."


"The Peace of Wild Things"
excerpt from the poetry of Wendall Berry
