Wind Turbines of Fenner
by Susanne Farrington
Driving in open countryside Where weeds reclaim the farms, I encounter sway-backed barns, Broken-down machinery, And blue roof-tarps.
Suddenly in view appear The stately wind turbines of Fenner. They stand so tall and elegant, Well-spaced on elevated land. Distant ones touch the wooded horizon, Slowly paddling trees with three white blades.
Up close, I can hear their breathy sound As each blade passes their monumental base. Now so relevant to rescue us From civilization’s excess.
