The Field Lies Open to the Intellect

"Step one for your design
Take yourself outside
At least a few times

At different times of day
Look, smell, listen, taste
Do whatever it takes
To read your landscapes

Which way's the hot and cold winds blow?
Where's it cool or frost or snow?
From where does the fire come?
How far's the reach of the season's, what are the angles of the season's sun?

Find out what you can
The soil is it sand or hard clay pan?
The more you look the more you'll know
What ye reap is what ye sow

(Chorus)
The field lies open to the intellect
Harmonize your design respect!
