harvest

 the honorable harvest has been much on my mind

 and this weekend i found myself marveling

over these seedheads

black eyed susans

lots of seeds to feed this little one,

and i almost missed it.

  old/new tub spent two years outdoors and has ecoprints

it's actually quite clean and shiny.

 around here you can be looking for stuff

 just walking

and you catch a cliff 

out of the corner of your eye

like this one.

i once watched a young man, sam,

spider himself up a far higher cliff.

i was in "charge" of him.

thankfully his skill

was exquisite,

as he crowned that cliff

waved hi to me.

 i've found a very intimate field

on my way home form work.

an amish place, 

small fields.

you know how when you ride a horse, 

or drive a team

or hike often

over a field

how well you get to know it?

i love that.

i was taking this sneaky photo

and then moved forward, 

and there was a young amish man, watching me, intently,

as i watch his corn ladies!
