Grandpa's Farm Poem by R.Benjamin Abate

Grandpa's Farm



I walk along my
Grandfather's farm
In Michigan-

My mother's home
So unlike my own-

Chickens singing
For the reaper-
Cows mooing in
Concentration camp
Love-

Pigs snoring
Because they're
Always sleeping-

'It's a lot of work'

My Grandfather says
As he takes a sip of
His whiskey bottle

I love it when a different world comes to the page like this as it reminds me there are other ways of life as I dwell in my little terraced house in a suburb of London.....come and read my poems about London ;)
