The hay was really …
The hay was really
sugar cane mulch
smelling warmly
of molasses
and green spikey cane
Warm earth
encompassed
in bundled..
crumbling grass
And when I pass it now
near my path..
a vague
and tremulous
thought
appears in my mind
a whiff
a scent
a trail to follow
back to blue skies
and waving green cane
and the earthy browny
tawny soil….
