the fields cleared for planting
the crops rocky impediment
are now their border and protection
Rock Wall: An Origin Of Necessity
Growing Season Allegory
full of peaks and valleys
riches and scarcity
and straight lines that wander
Morning At The Farm
the corn, flowers and barn
blessings of the new day
Three Sisters
corn waits
and holds a place for her sisters
beans and squash
Next Year
The tractor rests
beside next years berry crop
hoping for a bumper.
Rest
you may rest in the high weeds with the moon flower.
When it is time to till again you will carry the full weight of a man and his dreams.
Fields
a growing green cover that reaches from the river bank to the mountains.
Tied together with labor and nurture for the purpose of sustenance.
