Orchard Smudging
Orchard Smudging
Written: by Miracle Man

When, heavy frost was forecast,
for all the area and reaches.
Orchards would burn smudge pots,
trying to save their peaches.
A northwesterly wind whispers,
through recently budding trees.
We pray the temps don’t fall,
and the peach buds don’t freeze.
Smudging is not widely practiced today
due to health concerns.
