Words: "The Bright Field" by R. S. Thomas
[Verses]:
I have seen the sun break through
To illuminate a small field for a while
And gone my way and forgotten it
But that was the pearl of great price
The one field that had treasure in it
I realize now
That I must give all that I have
To possess it
Life is not hurrying on
To a receding future
Nor hankering after an imagined past
It is the turning aside like Moses
To the miracle of the lit bush
To a brightness that seemed as transitory
As your youth once
But is the eternity that awaits you
