Along the water ditch in the slanting light
On the ranching fields I walked out of sight
Of a congregation left behind my back
I shade my eyes to watch redwings rise from the thatch
I could love this land, smelling soil every day
Biding on the moon 'for harvesting the hay
I could settle down like a fence post set in tight
But I'm walking in the sun watching redwings taking flight
I hear voices in the yard and water in the ditch
And the birds and all their songs and I know for certain which
Side of the fence where shadow lies
Oh, to be alone where the redwings fly
