harvest
summer sun
hot, hot
golden glow
singing songs
of ripening
in a farmer’s field
a day’s work
transforms gold
into stubble
earth’s cycle
laid bare
in the light
of labor’s
morning

Today I am also over at Vision & Verb
with more thoughts on this field of wheat.
Come, join us!

Love the simple words together with the photo of wheat. As a former farm girl myself, this resonates.

I have always wondered what it would be like to grow up a farmer’s daughter or to be married to one. I find the whole idea of the farmer’s life fascinating, though I realize farming today is completely different than it was. I’m rambling, lol…what I’m trying to say is this is the dreamy expression of what I imagine it to be. Lovely 🙂

I’m so busy today, but it’s been far too long since I strolled through the blogsphere, so I promised myself I would just take a quick peek at your beautiful photos and words. Now that I am here, I cannot stop reading. You are amazing.
