What I see
When I read this poem, I see an old rusted house with a tin roof, with a porch facing towards the sun in a dusty field, with trees dotted around the place. I see an old fence that is falling apart in some places surrounding the house, which seperates it from the trees. The sky is a vivid blue, and there are birds circling in the sky. I see fields of wheat and grass in the distance, swaying in a gentle breeze.
