The Backstories

RSS By:

Farm Journal's Pam Smith says between the lines of every article she writes are backstories. These interesting tidbits or incidents that happen along the way provide plenty of fodder to ruminate on. Yet, they often never make it to the pages of Farm Journal. This blog is designed to give a behind the scenes look at how some of our journalism efforts unfold.

The Haunted Ear

Oct 31, 2011

In the spirit of Halloween, I’d like to share a little poem I came across on www.thedirtonseeds.com. Syngenta agronomist Rich Lee provided the following…

 

The Haunted Ear

A tale not written but often told,
 
From corn fields yellow, brown and gold.
 
A farmer’s quest, his mission clear,
 
Take from the fields the biggest ear.
 
But as you seek, so shall you find,
 
An ear unlike all other kind.
 
Ghosts and spirits are things to fear,
 
But none as evil as the haunted ear.
 
Stay from the fields this Hallows Eve,
 
Though some may enter none will leave.?
