Simile Whim

Once upon a whim When noting how the limb of a tractor, under-tucks the feed it raises up, It seemed as though it goes Akin to an elephant’s nose. When later the machine Departed from the scene With scary points hung in beneath the folded limb, Its appearance was akin to a giant scorpion.

AHA, I found one!!! I am very delighted by how intelligently you write. It's clear that you have good grammar and you really think how you are crafting your poetry. I really like that about you!! (also, this is something I would probably never think to write about, so you are unique!)

It's rare for a simile to come to mind. I don't have much to choose from

Now I'm afraid of my man-toys;-) Do you paint? Your unique way of seeing is fun and intriguing. Your expression of what you see is deelightful!

Depending on how often you'll see the digger, is how much I've altered your perception -- forever

Perhaps you would like to read a poem I wrote entitled, "These Hands" or "The Lost Smile" those are both pretty light:)

I'm still looking how to improve it, and I greatly appreciate the compliment. Which directs me to finding something 'light' on your site.
