CORN

Pile of fresh ears

crispy green outside

soft yellow and white kernels

silk soft and slippery

The smell of propane and corn

mixing with the sound of flies and dogs

The feel of the rubbery kernels

and the "RIPP" of shucks being peeled away

bobbing in the hot water on the stove and grill

chillin' in the cold tub

cut off into tasty golden piles

to fill little bags of farmers gold

piles of shucks and cobs

bed and breakfast for the pigs

winter meals in the freezer

fresh butter and sugar corn!!!
