Wheat harvest is in full swing. A combine marches through the wheat; when it reaches the end of this swath it will do-si-do and roundabout onto the next swath.

Ready
Combines are beginning to take off the wheat, I expect this field will succumb soon to the march of the harvest.
Drawn
Lately, I have been drawn to fields of winter wheat. They are ripening, nearing harvest. Combines have been moving through town and on local roads, presumably pre-positioning for the harvest hustle and bustle.
It’s one of the early, large scale crops to come off. This field will come off soon. With this weekends’ predicted very hot weather, soon may be a very few days from today.
I’m drawn in, reminded of what a fruitful, bountiful part of the word I’m blessed to live in.
Dot
A dandelion adds a dot of colour to the border of a wheat field.
Ripening
Winter wheat, ripening on a warm summer day.
Echo
A ‘weed’ echoes the shape of its much taller neighbour.
Living art
I have never looked at wheat other than through the ‘big picture’ lens,that is as a field, as the forest. Today I looked at the tree, the stalk of wheat. What a beautiful work, what art.
