Poems
Jul 2014
The Penniless People of Western Carolina
Turnips & Silver King,
onions & string beans,
carrots & radishes,
lettuce & potatoes,
yellow squash & bells,
the brown eggs
sure look swell.
Honey of all shades,
homemade jams & jellies
& wildflower arrangements
made to glorify God.
People here smile & nod
their friendliness
& what matter
if they have any teeth or not,
they will never be forgotten
for their gifts to mankind.
And if it were their last penny
& you needed it,
it would be yours.
