Notes About The Poem

Image result for free pictures of an older countryside

country-side

countryside's bird sounds in morn's restful quiet peace traffic starts flowing sweet mood walks away until hot sun drops in western sky daybreak on the porch swallows chirp, doves coo, crows caw.... those front loaders crank

Paula, there is always a good substitute for a porch. I know you will find one in and around your home to see sunrises and sunsets or even dawn. Thanks for your congrats and faithful comments. Sara K

This captures the shift from peaceful morning to the buzz of the day so perfectly! I could hear every sound—from the birds to the machinery. Such a relatable slice of countryside life.

Thank you, Rowena. It gets noisy here during the day for six of the seven days in a week so the quiet of early morning is appreciated. Thanks for the kind review of my work. I am glad that it was clear to you in its meaning. Sara K

we live on the edge of our town, the countryside just beyond our backyard fence. I enjoy sitting on the porch, watching and listening as the day unfolds. Right now, haybalers can be heard in the background. Have a nice weekend, Sara

due to past I know what a loader is. As was I was the one being loaded.
Kendrick Avatar

John, why in the world why were you being loaded? (Maybe you are speaking about being loaded with something like wine) I am speaking about a front-end loader on a very large John Deere tractor which is used to load trash/garbage at a transfer station. The sounds start at around 6 A.M. but even at 2:30 some traffic starts up for those who go in to do the businesses front loaded dumpsters. Sara K
