Friday Poetry Blogging


It's spring plowing time in Outer Podunk...drive around and you'll see the local Amish farmers driving their four- and sometimes even eight-horse teams around the fields. This photo is obviously not of the Amish -- it's from the Willamette Valley back in the 1930's -- but it still looks very familiar.

And also familiar is the image captured in this contemporary haiku:

spring plowing
a flock of blackbirds
turns inside out

-- Tom Painting
