Kim Rodrigues Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Yalto-In Rows of Yellow Corn

gilded hours’
           intense writing,
     sunrise
through twilight years.

fine riffling through strange*
            fodder, of
      poets,
i call friends.

                      mind-blown’
evident
   sharpening
       tool - seed-sown’ harvest.

in rows of yellow corn
                    we
stand TALL together.
