Out in the farthest pasture, minding the drowsy cows, I take off all my clothing, and fold it neat. I lie in a grassy bed and call forth a daydream.

I am a lily of the field today, an open blossom, bathed in the gift of sunlight from the All-providing.

I love the line, "I lie in a grassy bed and call forth a daydream." Beautiful prose Sharron.
