Harmony Green's blog! This blog highlights the music and poetic, liquid lyrics of Dan Fogelberg. I listen to a shuffled song on my iPod and write an inspired piece from that. The song is listed under 'labels' at the bottom of each entry. Enjoy!

The Harvest is Hard (One Long Line)
The Harvest is hard
and you get dirty
Your back hurts
Your head hurts
Your heart....hurts
The land is picked
bare
while under is
plowed the past
Fruit and fiber, grains
and gratitude
The Harvest...hard
and it humbles you
in the field... vast
As the
sun of the day
hits your shoulders
Your shadow is cast....
alone
One long line lies lonely
on the land
Yes, the Harvest is hard
and you do it, alone
because the feast that
awaits you is named....
FREEDOM
