The Barn Speaks at Boyd’s Mill PA
Today more writers came.
And illustrators.
Chitter chatter
They explore the trails, doorknobs and cabins.
The high ceilings exalt!
The woodwork sings!
Pitter patter
The stone floors guide their toes.
Find their umbrellas
And mud shoes.
Torrents whoosh
Cell phones silence in the wind and rain.
The aroma of rosemary and basil call from the kitchen.
Gourmet chef
Tossing salad
Amazes all with colored flavors.
You are welcome day and night at the barn.
Wifi and research provided.
Lift and touch!
Books strut their wares on shelves.
Staff miss no detail.
The nest is ready: regal and warm.
Under wing,
Sharing unfolds to gasps and giggles.
Understanding nods!
Comprehensive hand-outs!
Salt and pepper at
Highlights Foundation’s quality show.
