"Which of the horses

we passed yesterday whinnied

all night in my dreams?

I want that one."

from Stories from Kansas

 

 

More photos from our trip in Oct. these are our friends horses.

 All the quotes are from William Stafford's

Stories That Could Be True New and Collected Poems.

 

"While the earth breaks the soft horizon

eastward, we study how to deserve

what has already been given us."

from Love in the County

"The wild keeps telling us something 

we want to pass on to the world:

Even far things are real.

from Whispered into the Ground
