   I always wondered about the clash between “peace” and “bee-loud” in that poem. It came into my life at a time when the rows of beans reminded me both of Thoreau and the lyrics to a notorious Spinal Tap song. Thanks for a pleasant smile at the end of a difficult week!

     Glad you liked it, Jim. There’s the power of poetry, inspiring simultaneous thoughts of Thoreau and Spinal Tap!
