SCARECROW IN THE CORNFIELD He stands watch both day and night To look at him is quite a fright A lonely sentinel standing there His eyes fixed in an open stare He knows he has a job to do The crows are many, not a few He must keep them scared away Otherwise, there'll be no pay For all the corn spread o'er the field The scarecrow's presence ensures a yield He stands watch just so you know He'll be on guard come rain or snow So when you sit down at the table to dine And feast on corn as good as fine wine Let your friends and family know They owe it all to an old scarecrow 3 November 2018 For the contest sponsored by Jesse Rowe

I'll always look at the scarecrow in a new light now Curtis. They have my gratitude. Well written. Tom
