Scarecrow Poem by Morgan Michaels

Scarecrow



I am a scarecrow.
I watch the clouds
glide across the sky
to and fro
as the winds blow.

Rooks and crows
slide across the sky;
they fear me-
why?
being but paille and chapperal.

My head a sack of straw
the crows, oh ho,
cry cawcaw, cawcaw
that's the only
song they seem to know.

My hat, a sunflower.
Seeds of the standing weeds
take their rest
in its nest
and sprout and root and grow.

And yet you write and feel and compose so well that it is obvious that you are not made of straw. Read mine - We the Unencumbered - Tell me it is not too complicated that one cannot understand it. Adeline
