Harvest

8 Line Poems

I watched the seed, the little dot

as I laid it low within the solid ground

Awaiting to reap the treasures we'd sow

As recent years had failed to bring harvest.

So as I cut the barley and sheered the corn

I'd lie to myself, pretend this year was fine,

The dross in my head started to clear,

As I found new hope within the falling of the rains.
