Hi MariVal,
even the freaky looking scarecrow couldn't deplete the message of gratitude within the simplest of miracles, nor the veil of diminishing light slight my sight of the bigger picture... and that's the way I feel about you. The miracle and magic of wonderful connection and friendship on a daily basis, no matter the season or mood.

I'm now feeling like the scarecrow is bowing out of respect for two enlightened souls evolving:)) Of course it's us... and everyone else who chooses the path of conscious thought.

Very thought provoking Katauta Marival. As always a lot of detail and work has gone into the composition and presentation which I appreciate and acknowledge most talented poet. And the fact that you lay out a path to the explanation of the style, form and use of the Katauta does not go unnoticed.

With our thoughts we create...
the power of observation.

Warmest regards,
Jamie.

    Hola, Jaime,

    thank you for reviewing my older posts, I appreciate it. It has been nice to see you around here, lately. I pray for you and hope you are well. I feel grateful for our friendship too. You are a constant north star in my constellation.

    I love scary movies and stories so I had to go with the creepy, freaky-looking scarecrow. LoL

    Con cariņo, besitos y abrazos, amigo mio,

This was a beautiful poem. I love the way it seemed to zero in on a scene that could sometimes be ignored or overlooked. A field of grain, mostly just a golden field yet the poem made me see the individual parts of the plant. I could imagine the rich warm colors glowing under the setting sun. Gretchen

    Yes, you have a vivid imagination, that's part of the reasons I love Haiku, it's such a visual art form. I close my eyes and the words'imagery take me there.

    Thank you very much, have a wonderful weekend.

A scarecrow bowing this authenticity to the barely veiled in golden dusk. This poem is rich in imagery. Thank you for sharing your special talent with us. I enjoyed reading.

You always pick the best pictures for your poems! I liked the scarecrow "bowing" but I think you want "bows in reverence" if that's not too many syllables. "Revere" is a verb.

    Thank you very much, big sister. I wasn't sure and I checked the dictionary but I guess I didn't understand.

    Love,

Of course, these are both features that take place on a barley farm. Dusk is a beautiful time of the evening. I can just imagine how the barley catch the last streams of sunlight before it goes dark. In my mind's eye, I am also seeing the calm, 'effortlessly' breeze as it gently persuades the scarecrow to yield.
Beautiful poem with good imergry.
RJ

Rich, majestic barley, bathed in golden sunshine, with even the scarecrow in reverence to this glorious sight. Beautifully done, Gypsy. Thanks for sharing. Debbie

What a lovely katauta! I loved your choice of words, as well as the well-used literary devices. The color scheme was gorgeous and matched the stunning picture well. I am only counting 6 syllables in the end. Does "revere" have two or three syllables. Anyways, a well-written poem. Amazingly done!

Yes, of course God is the Master of the harvest, the one who feeds the world, but the prosperous tend not to share with the world abroad, beautifully written my friend, blessings Roy
Typo : scarecrow.bows in reverence. Or scarecrow bows to revere.

    Thank you very much, Roy. I wrote revere. Is that wrong? I checked the dictionary but I could be wrong.

    Thank you very much, Roy
