Worries of a chinese rice farmer.

Rice budding in swamps
Birds lurk behnd trees
Harvest looks ominous

Budding rice amid Lurking birds
Onset of an ominous harvest

Which one do you go with? Or do you have a different way to re-build it?

Excellence in contrasts, brother Abdi-Noor. What to do, what to do? I don't know if I can help financially, but I CAN pray about it. God can do anything!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend/sister in America, Karen Lynn in Texas. :(

I enjoyed the overall message however, no matter how I attempt to read that first line it just feels very awkward to me. It may be the use of assonance actually, which is odd, I've never really seen assounce hinder a poem but I guess here it has. Possibly it's due to the brevity of the piece, and the fact that there isn't really any other usage of assonance or illiteration so that one instance where you decided to use it just sounds very abstract, or rather obtuse and the contrast between the simplisity of the surounding content makes that one instance come off as out of place. It's a short piece, feels like a haiku possibly, although I didn't count the syllables so I dont know, but the length of the piece made that error really stick out to me. Great piece overall, in terms of message and all the other lines... just reword that first line and this would be great.

Potent, indeed, as Eileen says, Abdi-Noor. But birds lurking about might be better than rats or vultures.
