Evening On The Prairie.Or the heavens half so tall, Here the coyote finds no echo To his weird and lonesome call, The blue-white flame of Venus Is a candle on the wall, Mighty candle, mighty wall___ Come out, come out and meet the Man Who built that great blue wall, Who spread it out so far and wide And raised it up so tall. And feel yourself grow wider, See yourself grow tall, Talking with the Mighty Man Who built the great blue wall, Walking with the Mighty Man Who raised it up so tall. __Elizabeth N. Barr |
