A Mill Pond

like scare crow 
                                                    mill at centre to blow 
                                          gives mill lots of water to push arms 

                                      among colorful tulip laden field that charms 
                        recharging from rain and streams flowing through green farms 

                                        to crush grains and send flour far beyond 
                                                    as if with magic wand 
                                                              A Mill Pond
