A Family Farm
by Richard L. Provencher is a shamble of forgotten shapes struggling for balance in an unkempt pasture. The old home is weather-ravaged fallen timbers a sanctuary for mice and other furry creatures a sliver of sky peeks through one last dusty window pane, apple trees and pussy willows pouting aside the river bank. This leftover scene is an album for reminiscing. As children we swam Muddy Creek, chased cows and fed the pigs minding free-range chickens helping momma and poppa, always busy with chores. And sadly we grew into city folk a long time ago. Richard L. Provencher Richard enjoys writing poems; many of which have been published in Print and Online. He and his wife, Esther are also co-authors of stories and a print novel. They are "born again" Christians and very busy in their church, Abundant Life Victory International, in Bible Hill, Nova Scotia. Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
