Thank you for the matching picture of the amazing sky over a field of barley to complement your 5-7-5. The "golden" text is a good highlight as well. Smiles- Joan

I think the picture in my 7-7 couplet reminded you of a field of barley. I like it. The red mixed with black clouds are beautiful. Yes. A storm is coming.

Well done.

    Hello, Lisa, thank you very much for letting me know about my error. I fixed it. I don't know what happened... Thank you for reading my poem.

ripe golden field of barley
sways in the warm breeze at dusk

We ponder a calm moment before the harvest, when farmers think of the rewards of their work, and can take a moment to admire the beauty of the natural world.

I love barley. One of my favourite food groups and not in whiskey either. That stuff is dreadful. Shudder.

Excellent contribution to your book, Gypsy and there really is some majestic about standing in a field of ripe grain and you have captured that beautifully.

Always a treat to read your fine work. :))

Beautiful imagery of a field at sunset! Stunning colors. Puts me in the mood for some hot barley soup on an autumn night...perhaps a follow up? We shall see.

Such a dramatic picture! Golden is both the color and a hint at the harvest wealth.
I'm reviewing on my phone so I can't see the format but it seems this is. 7-7 but the description says it follows a 7-7
