on the forest floor
time quilts early autumn

Patchwork

quilted covering<br />
pieced together
Quilted Sky
Tucked under a blanket of clouds
the river valley rests.
Country Nine Patch
The land is quilted with care
by leathered hands guiding the blades of the big red tractor.
An old wood fence ties this patch to the next.
Fields
The fields form a patchwork quilt,
a growing green cover that reaches from the river bank to the mountains.
Tied together with labor and nurture for the purpose of sustenance.
