This Orchard Sound
註釋In This Orchard Sound, poet and woodworker John Terpstra takes the reader to an abandoned fruit orchard as it is being bulldozed. From the twisted limbs of apple, pear, and plum trees to cars dripping fluids far removed from the rain that once fell on the orchard grass, Terpstra asks questions of progress, grace, and the complicity of humanity in this short suite of poems. Only the birds answer his questions as he paces the old orchard, armed with his saw, gathering wood for his latest commission: a new cross for a local congregation.
