[hometext] => Just recently purchased the farm house I grew up in. This poem was written from days past, on the farm.
[bodytext] => Grew up on a small farm with memories often sweet. Tire swing in the front yard, hanging from a strong branch on an old maple tree. I used to hug that big ole' tree... Always a true and trusted friend to me. Lilacs of different hues, their sweets scents did abound. Spireas with tiny white bouquets gracefully drooping to the ground. The old red barn sits out my upstairs window... A pond down the field road... surrounded on one side by Mulberry trees. All this around me I treasured and loved. Fine memories of working hard... Driving tractor Bucking bales Gigging frogs Fishing until sunset came. Washing my hair in the metal tub outside where we collected rain. Broad shouldered tomboy, I was. Strong minded girl. My mother would say... "you work better than a man" Snapping beans Shucking corn Using the scythe Out in the hot sun all day skin browned...body lythe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
