That Morn.
I sat one morning 'mid leafy-gold oceans
of swelling corn
and felt the unknowable alter my senses.
A breath of immeasurable beauty caught
notion's core as
stalks slowly shouldered birth's attempts.
Gowns of fine silvery filigree floated lightly
round tasseled throb
as fragile cobs through thick fringes crept.
Bodies of blown-silk wispy veins muscled
themselves over
growth's bulges to create protective webs.
With hearable ticks the chorus of nature
gilding pale corn
in speechless glory became loudly intense.
I stayed convinced that morn after proof
that life's being is
quite seeable to eyes on amazement bent.

A fine write and place to be Fay. Well, I was not in the corn fields (it's private property) but was on a country walk, and felt like I was in the 'back of beyond'.
My dear Fay,
This is an extraordinary verse tantalizing our senses!
ā...lifeās being is quite seeable to eyes on amazement bentā
Iām convinced you can write about anything like no other can! You truly possess the gift of writing! Thank you for sharing your marvelous work with us for our enjoyment!

A beautiful write Fay - I was there in the corn.
it comes and goes in the right direction.
THANKS FAY ~ for sharing a lovely "At one with Nature

THANKS FAY ~ for sharing a lovely "At one with Nature" experience. The STRUCTURE ~ balanced triplets ~ is superb and the SUBJECT and language sublime ! Superficially one could say that you reflected on the "growingness" of corn ~ as you sat in it ! However your linguistic skills demand more than just that ! Love verse 3 ~ as fragile cobs through thick fringes crept ~ How long did you sit there ? V 4. "The creation of protective webs" V 5. "Gilding pale corn" V 6. "That life's being is quite seeable to eyes on amazement bent" That insight is what this very elegant Poem is all about ! Thanks for caring & sharing ~ Yours as always ~ BRIAN
Super write Fay, I felt I was in the corn field as well.
