COWS AND BUTTERCUPS edit
COWS AND BUTTERCUPS
WEST VIRGINIA 1944
across a field velvet green,
with buttercups and roaming cows
framed in skies cerulean
two women, skirts past the knees.
white hair dancing in the breeze,
walked lazily arm in arm in quiet conversation.
rare moments these to tell what only women
need to share beyond the care of men

I like
this beautiful vignette. It's not easy to say much in so few words especially when they are as unpretentious as this.
