Notes About The Poem

Field of Caramel Wheat

Summer 1932,
On a small country house in England


On a morning stroll through unharvest golden field
to explore, I can't help, but think that they're
dreams now,  missing friends and friendship it yields.
It's up and down memorable times we shared.

A dream it sure is!

Here or there, I should find a space
to plant my cane,
its brunch time for tea and crumpets
when I really have a way to go.
A monument of sorts to what I have here.

All I can think now is the blazing sun over me.
It's the best place in the world
on a small patch of clearing I sit
and eat crumpets with a cup of tea
amongst the standing field of caramel wheat.

Perfect poem for the photo Eve. She looks so English and they do love their crumpet. Best of luck in the contest.
