Under Santa Barbara Skies

by Chryss Yost, Santa Barbara Poet Laureate Bless the guardians, the stewards of this place, who shape the native landscape with their care tend the soil as beauty blossoms there, as vision and tradition interlace. Bless the chaperones, protectors of the land, the architects that shape our neighborhood homes that feel, as Santa Barbara should, both welcoming and grand. Your careful work is honored here today, the rooms and gardens that you’ve built upon a foundation laid by other hands now gone, new roads where as old path marks the way. May all your attentions be generous and wise, and worthy of these Santa Barbara skies.
