On the first sight, there is countryside. Then there is a romantic night - and suddenly you make me think I am in the middle of the city. And who knows what sort of silo this one is. Something in the case of emergency? Or something to attack or to repay attacks. Good one.
It is called progress when a city becomes larger but the beauty of the land soon disappears in cement and steel structures...how sad. I really like the thoughts and feelings this evokes Emma.

_So often, the cities creep toward, then overcome the farmlands; the abandoned silos may then face the moon and ask... why?

Ralf, Magyar, Devika - I enjoy reading the way you suck every idea out of three lines, its a pleasure to read.
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you all for your comments.
Thankyou for the silo word. Just what I was looking for a couple of days ago.
ReplyDeletealways happy to help, Harps
ReplyDeleteI might try this without "turn to," although that would affect the syllable count and rhythm. Sometimes it's fun to flip 'em and see what happens
ReplyDeletethe city breathes . . .
an abandoned silo
faces the moon
a thoughtful rewrite - I'll think about that one. Cheers Bill
