Balmy still in dead of night
Clawing cat, a sore of sight
Howling dogs in moonlight
here I am..... Waiting...... for the crows
Hollow shell of a man,
standing with a burlap tan.
Wishing for a bit of land,
He waits..... For the crows
Years and years go racing by
a big red button for an eye.
tattered clothes, they're rather dry..
He waits.... For the crows
Balmy still in dead of night
Cawing crows, wish to fight.
Never to know what is right,
here I am..... Waiting...... for the crows
"Really?"
Years and years pass me by,
my posts start to crack and splay,
waiting for that bold, cold day,
that I fall..... To the ground....
"Can you hear them?"
Swooping in, and from the sky
comes the danger, black wings fly
circling, contemplating....
Harvest time, a pleasent day
the wheat is threshed, straw meshed
barking dogs, and grinding stones,
plaid dressed farmer, his name Is Jones.
Drinking Jack, to pass his day
Look theres Jill, roll-in hay....
I'm done waiting.....
And now boys and girls...
The Harvest done, my use is gone,
Waiting here on the farmers lawn
I rest..... For next year.
