My Body Felt No Pain

Out of the blue this morning 
Came a golden day 
The early fog had lifted 
Through my window pane 
After last night’s rain 

I went into the garden 
The flowers fed the bees 
I straightened up and breathed in 
Apples on the breeze 
Glints all through the trees 

No thing on earth I wanted 
No thought of loss or gain 
Nobody worth my envy 
My body felt no pain 
My body felt no pain 

I forgot the hurt I’d suffered 
Forgot my deeds of shame 
The kestrel high up cared not 
And I felt the same 
Yes, I felt the same
