Pictures From Van Gogh (Wheat Field With A Lark) Poem by Raymond Farrell

Pictures From Van Gogh (Wheat Field With A Lark)



Above
a ripening field
of wind blown wheat
a lark
whirls
in undulating spirals
revealing
first
dark-streaked wings
and then
a white trimmed tail
dancing lyrically
across a freely painted sky
simultaneously
delivering a vigorous stream
of high clear notes
this master of song
fills the scene with hope
scarcely marred
by the foreground
of stubble
indicating
the reaper
has come
and gone.
