No more morning fields of amber grain

There will be no more morning fields of amber grain 

patterned by swirling wind 

for Ordi has been harvested 

 straw rolled bound and bailed.


 Soon the plough will turn the land 

till then the sheep may forage 

'til they too are harvested

there will be no more morning fields.

(Ordi -barley)
