D'verse . Sunday Morning

"Ploof------------ ploof, "
Steps on dusty stairs

sll-oof,  sch-----looff :
corncob broom

sliding hay and chaff
from wooden loft, onto ground.

Pluuufff ----whufff,
manure fork cuts through dust
to lift it up.

"Droo-ook----- schruuuc-kkk, "
hay bits glide
short ride on metal,

to the manure pile!
