Once fertile fields
that shouldered cloaks of drought.
now grow hunger.
Their loam enticed away
by waspish dust devils.
Yellow buttercups and African violets
dress the last sun-bleached page
of a children’s book,
all that’s left.

Quote:Original;
The fields, once fercund
shoulder their dusty cloaks of drought.
now they grow hunger .
The loam enticed away
seduced by dancing dust devils
Yellow corn and African violets
dress the last sun-bleached page
of a children’s book.
