I quite enjoy looking at the world through rose-tinted glasses, I like it much better that way! This poem takes us to a time when grass meadows were harvested by scythes. From our view in the hayloft we watch the harvesters sweeping with their scythes back and forth, back and forth.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe are lulled into a pleasant drowziness as we are warmed by the sun and we watch the rythmic movements of the harvesters.
