Listen to poem:
A murder of crows observes our approach, eying my sister's sheaf, worn like a brooch. Yet, this gilded field of wavering gold is quite a wonder for me to behold! This is the first time I've helped harvest grain; the breezes are warm, with no chance of rain. And under a pale blue sky, work feels fun, I love it here in the light of the sun. I hear the giggles that all sisters share, but something I see makes me stop and stare. I see a circle pressed into the wheat, and I'm puzzled by what's under my feet. My sisters don't stop working, that seems strange, then laughter follows a heated exchange. It turns out it's a nest flattened by deer, not an alien crop circle; oh dear.
