Still Meadow
By Sarah Harrell Trexler
I walked to the edge of the
woods today—and there in the
edge of the underbrush—l
saw a rabbit box, all set and
waiting; but there was no cab
bage leaf to coax the rabbit
inside.
I remember the boys at
home when they were young.
They had rabbit boxes and
went morning and night to
check for rabbits. They sold
the rabbits to Cecil Byrum’s
grocery store for fifty cents
apiece.
Perhaps that box belongs to
a young fellow nearby.
If so, he really needs to bait
that box.
As for me—l’ll just chase
them now and then—When I
write about—Still Meadow.
Frost at Still Meadow
There was frost on the
meadow and more on the rise.
The pine trees a dark con
trast to all of that wonder.
I have seen such frost a long
time ago—in Washington
County—across the vast
peanut fields and away to the
edge of the swamp.
Today I could almost see
my papa out there—the great
white frost that he loved to
see. Good for the crops to
come he would say. The sun
has come out now and the
green has come again to the
meadow.
Some patches are left
sparkling like diamonds in the
sun.
I must be leaving soon for
my daughter’s house in
Virginia Beach. We hold
season tickets for the Virginia
Philharmonic and that I
would not like to miss.
The scene from my door
way today was a symphony in
white—a winter
wonderland—at Still Meadow.
Cold Day at Still Meadow
There sure is the look of
• snow in the air today. The
?nd the, fields beyond
are still and cold. Only the tall
’O’TprriKrn- 1 ♦-
pine trees have movement
near the tops some limbs
move ever so gently. The
clouds seem to be coming
from the north—snow clouds.
Even the grass in the
meadow and on the rise
seems to be shrinking back in
to the ground—as if looking
for a warmer place.
I put crumbs out for the
birds.
A little to close to the house
I think. They sit in the trees
and look at the crumbs by the
door.
Still Meadow
Well—Now I am going to
chase a few rabbits.
I love well the poems of
Edgar A. Guest. The dearest
one Home.
