beautiful imagery, a touch of the laurie lees. wonderful.

i like the perspective in the photo. funny how bails have changed; sheaves to blocks to spirals. what next?

Having tossed a few bales in my lifetime… well done!

Such a lovely depiction of the autumn countryside. I remember when we used to bale (only back then it was the rectangular ones!)

Very nice.

The first time I saw hay rolled in the way it is in your lovely photo, it was 1972 and I was riding a train in England. Since then I have seen it rolled that way many a time, but I will always remember the first time and looking at your photo & reading your haiku reminds me of the first time I saw rolled hay. PS ‘Rolled hay’ may not be the correct term for it…

I can clearly smell the warmth and sweetness of the freshly cut hay. Delicious.
