It was an enormous green-eyed monster <br />Shining brightly in the sun <br />Truly a handsome specimen <br />And boy, did it get the work done <br /> <br />Chopped and dropped the golden wheat <br />Right there where it once stood <br />With an amazing kind of engine <br />Rotating beneath the green-grass hood <br /> <br />I stood there, completely in wonderment <br />At all the activity and commotion <br />A sweet freshness totally filled the air <br />My eyes welled up with emotion <br /> <br />I was amazed at the expanse of machinery <br />Designed to take a wide clean swath <br />I wanted to see every second of it <br />As it chopped every single strand off <br /> <br />And then there is the drying process <br />Letting nature bake it in the sun <br />Once again the machinery rolled <br />They don’t stop until the work is done <br /> <br />I wanted to watch the entire process <br />Till it was loaded and ready to go <br />The most wonderful time of year, I think <br />Is the breathtaking Wheat Harvest show!<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-wheat-harvest-show/
