Snapthought: Farmlands

Posted on March 16, 2012 by Sheila

we love to drive by farmlands
fleeting in the distance
glowing moments yellow green
then nothing but gray highway
these yellow green moments
make us think
of fresh frothy milk
homemade apple pies
baked bread puffing up
like clouds in endless skies
the smell of the earth
after the rain
then again there’s nothing
but gray highway

Mmmm….loved your poem, Sheila, and your photos! I’m a country girl (middle aged, perhaps), at any rate, I really enjoyed these! xx 🙂

  Thanks Lauren! I loved your horse photos too. I’m originally from MI and so I have a crazy love of farmlands and the ocean – too bad they’re not usually near each other. xoxo
