A big weathervane
Is perched atop the old barn
Whirling in the wind
Forewarning a farmer that
A strong storm maybe brewing.
Hi Rose Marie, Your poem is reminiscent of the times when weathervanes technological marvels. Now we have technology, equipment’s and devices that can predict climate with good accuracy. So, one may wonder what the weathervane is doing atop the barn? ?

Look at this piece of utility of olden days. Functional, aesthetic beauty, something that would not result in a junk polluting the environment and so many positive points one can talk about such old things, and then compare with today's. We had winding watches, even automatic one. What was the need for battery operated ones adding to piles of pollution in land-fills. There is not one product that has no such serious side effects. Your poem provoked these thoughts. Lovely.
A fabulous short poem with fascinating imagery! Beautifully drafted! Loved reading it.................................10

I would like to translate this poem
A movable device attached to an elevated object for showing the direction of the wind is well illustrated in this pretty poem....10+++++
