January Fields
Winter's Fields
January is a cold month in Pennsylvania and many times the fields are gold and brown. This is a poem for winter.
"January Fields"
January days and sun is cold
Tall grass in fields is gold
With seeds encased in paper fold
The base of stem a blushing red
Blooms are dry and dead
Wind blows cold about my head
Sky is brooding
Steel-gray lead
All the trees are bare
A skeleton sea
Still barren heart
It calls to me
