FEED, by RAYMOND KNISTER Poet's Biography First Line: For danny whistling slowly Last Line: Then lean again to scoop up the swill. Subject(s): Farm Life; Agriculture; Farmers | |||
For Danny whistling slowly "Down in Tennessee" A fat white shoat by the trough Lifts his snout a moment to hear, Among the guzzling and slavering comrades, Squeezing and forcing: And begins to feed again. Whenever a certain note comes He will raise his jaws His unturning eyes, Then lean again to scoop up the swill. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...KICKING THE LEAVES by DONALD HALL THE FARMER'S BOY: WINTER by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD THE FARMER'S BOY: SPRING by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD THE FARMER'S BOY: SUMMER by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD THE FARMER'S BOY: AUTUMN by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD |
