[hometext] => I've always felt so sorry for them!
[bodytext] => No watchtower in sight. Guards throughout the night. No recognition? No one understand his plight! Hair like straw. Unruly law. Well fed, often stuffed. Unkempt, not neat, often roughed! No eyes nor ear. Yet seems to peer. Projects much fear! Untrained job not clear! Old straw hat, or ugly cap. Stiff arms, few charms. Yet alarms, any foe close or near by! Stand alone, No freedom to roam! Forbidden exercise, without muscle tone! No woman need apply, Used as "stand-by." Thrives 'neath hot sun! Dried out 'til done! No wages paid. Continuous sunshade. Courageous, unafraid! Strong gusts, Endures locusts! Windblown. Post for backbone, Ancestors not known! Lives in "Danger Zone!" Kin to Mailman All weather stand! Rain, hail, cloudburst! Remains steady, and cursed! Needs no heart, to tear apart! Faithful and Loyal too! Deserves much love. No admiration from a Dove! Has "LockJaw!" Big Birds "Caw" Birds may bow, catch on somehow? Humilated and subdued! Owner's right down "Rude!" No one appreciates, often put-down, cut-down, melt-down. Name to know.........? "MR. SCARECROW!" Created by Cheri Cam LeBren August 2003 I've always wanted to write a poem about the poor scarecrow...now it's done! I surely had fun!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
