Fence Post

July 10, 2010

"The birds that came to it through the air
At broken windows flew out and in,
Their murmur more like the sigh we sigh
From too much dwelling on what has been.

Yet for them the lilac renewed its leaf,
And the aged elm, though touched with fire;
And the dry pump flung up an awkward arm;
And the fence post carried a strand of wire."
Robert Frost
excerpt from "The Need Of Being Versed In Country Things"

There is indeed a strand of wire still attached to the post.
