Premium Member raining in summer

morning plans cancelled 
there will be no gardening 
to wet too muddy

the ground rejoices 
saved from tilling and hoeing 
by summer's rainstorm

Fathers

Far too many of these absentee fathers believe that they can plant a seed and harvest 
a decent crop (child) without ever hoeing a row or pulling a weed (having any 
involvement in their lives).

Memories Lost

Memories Lost


past entangled snares
heavy laden under mire
lurk memories lost

deeply seeded held
cleverly hidden in mist
are memories lost

heaving  hoeing
ebbing flowing never showing
all memories lost

Premium Member Spring's Bestowing

No longer snowing
The sun is glowing
The rains ongoing
Daffodils growing
Crows crowing
Winds blowing
Rivers overflowing
Children helloing
Frisbee throwing
Much more outgoing
Farmers ready for sowing
Gardeners hoeing
Neighbors easygoing
All soon will be lawn mowing

An Easy Life

AN EASY LIFE
Knowing not a lot about Growing things from seed, Sowing in the proper places, Hoeing out the weeds Sought alternative solutions, Thought I’d scrap the flower bed. Ought to make my life far simpler. Bought a patio instead. 17th June 2021 Lento eight lines contest Sponsor - Joseph May

From Prayer To the Thunder God

Thunder in the morning I complain  
Summer's even  
Hoeing in the rain I soon quit the field. . .

Freedom,

The spring at the one tree

From which we drank

Sweat pouring off us

In the grasshopper blur of Midsummer

The lightning dances in my eyes

The thunder rattles in my ears,

O Great Spirit
To be,to be
Freefalling and free

Premium Member Grandma is Sewing

Grandma used to live in a boat, and she was sometimes rowing
But she got rid of grandpa, who now lives with a gardener who is hoeing.
Grandma is surrounded by thimbles, needles, and fat quarters showing
We always say, “If she is not sewing, then she is sewing”
It might not make sense to you, for you are not knowing
That our grandma is always, and I mean always sewing.

Confetti

Wretched thrives going at rapid speeds
Spreading lines like ill manic seeds
Fanatic flowers attacking whack salad weeds 
Hoeing each line with a cocaine breeze 

I sneeze and tease these cursive lines with ease
Herbs dipped in asinine with the blue cheese
Cheddar mixed with ketamine, fed my epiphany if any. 
Thoughts ready to go steady. Aim fire bang goes the confetti.

glorious day calls
donning summer's broad-brimmed hat
for LOVE of sunshine

locate garden shoes
unworn since last november
garden work my FUN
laggard spring was late and cold
urgent..seeding must get done

dig them up and put them in
setting sets in ..seeding seeds
hoeing, raking, composting

Hoeing there and 
trying to 
make the fake food 
stuff grow i 
found inside a 
cracked line some 
specimens of 

unarmed rat fish 
that had 
futon sponges 
glued to 
them along with 

all the other odd sermons 
about 
blundering humility 
and how 
the thin react to knights in 
white sat-
in sheets when the weak end bend-

ers play to come dribbling out 
their un-
locked crates and great granny nook 
          holes.

A Treat For the Girls

A farmers works not easy
It’s a hard and lonely life
I never gets to town much 
So its hard to find a wife
I’m up at dawn most every morn
A milking and a feeding
Then afternoons I’m in the fields
A hoeing and a weeding
So when the sun goes down at night
The working day be done 
I’ll go down to the sheep pen
Just to pick a pretty one
They sees me in my wellies
And they all begin to bleat
They know that I am there to give
Some special girl a treat

A Pride of Tiger Lilies

While weeding in my vegetable garden,
I took a needed break, from my hoeing.
I gazed along the creek over the glen,
a pride of tiger lilies opening.

It appeared to me an exposition,
a thousand deep, emerging on parade.
Row on row and column after column,
in full regalia, a marching brigade.

A brilliant orange with narrow spots of brown,
on each top hat, a yellow pollen crown.
Shoulder to shoulder in closed rank column,
marching, marching in ornamental plume.
