  Lupine Ridge

  by Peggy Simson Curry

  Long after we are gone,

  Summer will stroke this ridge in blue;

  The hawk still flies above the flowers,

  Thinking, perhaps, the sky has fallen

  And back and forth forever he may trace

  His shadow on its azure face.

  Long after we are gone,

  Evening wind will languish here

  Between the lupine and the sage

  To die a little death upon the earth,

  As though over the sundown prairies fell

  A requiem from a bronze-tongued bell.

  Long after we are gone,

  This ridge will shape the night,

  Lifting the wine-streaked west,

  Shouldering the stars. And always here

  Lovers will walk under the summer skies

  Through flowers the color of your eyes
