Cattle eat and Fence  
in the field
People will never cows
People do not fence

in the field

Night is this bird
Perched high on a
White picket fence
Just listen to her
Sweet serenade,
Bring tears
To this starry night

Premium Member On the Fence Seen

After the down pour
Of a heavy rainfall
The wet fence dries off
Now the wet spot shows
A wet spot shape heart
Done by Mother nature

The Political Fence

I sat on my Republican fence.
Looking at politicians from thence.
And what did I see
Looking back at me?
Disenfranchised freedoms with no sense.

There Is a Fence In My Bed

A 38th parallel separates our pillows
I try to touch her and she bellows
We are like strangers in our own bed
Help me break the Berlin wall in my bed

through the broken fence—
universal flight to freedom calls

Premium Member Climbing a Fence

Out walking one morning I found a fence blocking my path
I wondered if it was to keep me out, or to keep something in..
With a hole in my pants, I continued my adventure

Premium Member This Old Fence

How in the world is this fence still standing
Taking punches from winds so demanding
With a defiant grin
It refused to give in
Till my dog sent it down in a crash landing

The Fence Builder

brimmed eyes 
squinting against the noon brightness.
gloved hands 
wiping the salty drops away.
denim moving
with the lankiness beneath.
strong lines
rising as the maul swings

Old Rail Fence

An old rail fence lingers by the meadow Humbled by the toll of seasons spent Posts erect, still standing at attention Arms outstretched, embracing that which was Many years ago

On the Fence

on the 
fence 
always 
lived  
one foot in
one foot 
outside of 
the box 
inter-changeable
behaviors  
unstable motivational
changes
indecisive indecision
unclear clarity 
clear as mud

The Mexican Border Fence

Billions of tax dollars, for a useless curtain
             "Gringo, we just dig a tunnel to move our drugs under your fence"
                Been doing it for years, worthless a screen door on a submarine

A spotted grey post

Aged, wetherbeaten.
Repainted.
Aged, wetherbeaten.
Six fence panels 
Next to a spotted grey post.
Right, right, wrong, right, wrong, wrong.
Split asunder, 
Now siblings, they stand.
Nailed shoulder to shoulder

FENCE

tall and green
keeping something in
or keeping something out?

tall    dividing
crow flies over
dumps

old and leaning
oh
those heavy birds!

tall and strong
just a line
from 30,000 feet

see the house
see the wall
fear built

Premium Member Following a Fence Line

fence’s formidable periphery
enclosed more than I could ever see
I walked it at eight, was still gone by three
the length of this fence has amazed Tim and me
Tim is a bull I discovered along the way
I wanted to ride him back, but he said “no way!”

Sense

• What's a pretty pink ribbon doing on this rickety, old fence? • And what looks to be a purse on the dirty forest floor? • This doesn't make much sense • For what reason are they here? • The more I think about it, the more I feel tense

Two Peasant Girls - on an old fence rail

Unyielding, in an otherwise 
Unfeeling wintry day.
Meek smilers, head-scarfed. Blizzard- blitzed.
Shine sweet greetings my way.

More of that iced swiping blows up;
Briefly skews the vision:
Two little chubby bullfinches
Perched their low branch upon.

Fence Sitter

Being a middle child
Made my temperament mild
And not so demonstrating
But some would think off-putting

But it is not a popular place
When the world appears in a race
And sitting on the fence
Is one made for defence and not offence.

Premium Member Thoughts From Both Sides of the Fence

THE MAN:

He sits quietly,
Warm in his beautiful coat.
What is he thinking.



THE MONKEY:

Sitting here alone,
Contemplating lifes meaning.
Freaking cold out here.

The Fence

The Fence
The night dark iron gate slams shut
Symbolic for centuries of forbidden crossings
The piled stone lay line across the field
Each rock a hand picked custom fit
Old rusty curtains running zigzag through the forest
Crushed by the tall and silent fallen creators of shade

Riding Fence In April

The calendar says spring has arrived
through the window the sun shines 
Outside the weather does not agree
But I still ride the fence and look through
the narrow slit between my hat and scarf
looking for signs that the world might be changing
I don't think spring in Montana can read

Premium Member A Bright Red Robin Struts on My Fence

    A bright red robin struts on my fence
      little lord of this, his street
    He whistles out a merry tune
      hopeful that he’ll meet

    A lovebird who will make their nest
      as from his heart he tweets
    Together we will recreate
      ~ and raise a family sweet
