Brown Fields


Brown Fields

 

Brown fields
All the branches look dead
And no grapes are on the vines. 

A miracle starts to happen
Leaves appear and little clusters of grapes.

 When I get hot I eat grapes.
But I wash how many I am going to eat.
The juice squirts all over the place.

 The grapes are picked and
Shipped around the world.

 The leaves are turning yellow,
Green, and orange.
In the brown fields
The leaves are falling to the ground.
