2wenty 2wo word harvest<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
early peas so welcomed<\/p>\n
the first to go<\/p>\n
dry desperate tendrils<\/p>\n
grasping<\/p>\n
the wiry metal fence<\/p>\n
then yanked<\/p>\n
without a thank you<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
withered vines break<\/p>\n
in the wind<\/p>\n
frost bitten<\/p>\n
red tomatoes intoxicated<\/p>\n
into jars<\/p>\n
for deep winter meals<\/p>\n
and perhaps<\/p>\n
a blue ribbon<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
the last<\/p>\n
green bumpy cucumber<\/p>\n
waits alone<\/p>\n
her young children abducted<\/p>\n
pickles she sobs<\/p>\n
dill I believe<\/p>\n
humans can be<\/p>\n
so cruel<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
anxious zucchini<\/p>\n
hopes for a pie<\/p>\n
no one is coming<\/p>\n
for you<\/p>\n
september is over<\/p>\n
and you’re boring<\/p>\n
so much for success<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
the growing is done<\/p>\n
time to go<\/p>\n
warns the crow<\/p>\n
not for me<\/p>\n
cries the four-eyed potato<\/p>\n
Thanksgiving<\/p>\n
they’ll be back<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
