Rare as hen's teeth

I am not yet sure what I will do with this. Perhaps I will post my poems here, if only to put them all in one place. I expect that I will also have comments to make about development agriculture. I doubt that there will be a very wide readership. I was recently contacted by a fellow agronomist who commented that I was the only agronomist she had found listed on Facebook in a rather large metropolitan area. The list could not have been comprehensive, but it is true that we are getting as rare as hen's teeth. When I last visited my Alma Mater I spoke with a former professor of mine who informed me that there were only 7 agronomy majors in the department. So it seems likely that agronomic poetry will not be very popular. We shall see.
