Hi Brooke, such a luscious and peaceful scene. Cows out to pasture and us raising our glasses for milk. All sounds so homely. I grew up on a ranch and can relate. We also harvested honey. I loved the rhyme and flow of your poem.
Oh, I did my first romance poem. When you have a moment please read and tell me what you think. No need to review - just pm me. I'll have to learn all the different styles. lol. luv jada

This poem says so much to me. A land of milk and honey where we will prosper. I also had reflections of my childhood when I used to visit my uncle's dairy ranch.

Nicely written with good rhyme and rhythm.

Best wishes,
Malcolm

An interesting snippet of information...
this piece is so different to the last
I just read, and yet, still it is an excellent
piece, Brooke -- smooth flow to the words, and to
both rhythm and rhyme -- and complemented
by a great picture. You never cease to amaze
me with all the different themes you come up
with.

We've so many new calves here -- and young
lambs -- a lovely time of year -- I take a
few extra walks just to go and watch them
leap about in some game they play.

Margaret.

Mmm... this made my mouth water! Milk and honey...somehow you presented those words in such a rich and wonderful way it sounded delicious. Excellent job.

I wonder if I can see it that way in Florida. Sometimes different angles don't allow that sort of thing. Great writing. You and Margaret will be responsible for my Rose poem. I just got so into wanting the colors you guys see. joan marie

    Sometimes you can't see things happening in the sky because of clouds or the angle of the earth is what I meant. jm
