Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEEFGF HIAI JKJGJ LMNMOM PBPBBG HG| Tell me about that harvest field | A |
| Oh Fifty acres of living bread | B |
| The colour has painted itself in my heart | C |
| The form is patterned in my head | B |
| - | |
| So now I take it everywhere | D |
| See it whenever I look round | E |
| Hear it growing through every sound | E |
| Know exactly the sound it makes | F |
| Remembering as one must all day | G |
| Under the pavement the live earth aches | F |
| - | |
| Trees are at the farther end | H |
| Limes all full of the mumbling bee | I |
| So there must be a harvest field | A |
| Whenever one thinks of a linden tree | I |
| - | |
| A hedge is about it very tall | J |
| Hazy and cool and breathing sweet | K |
| Round paradise is such a wall | J |
| And all the day in such a way | G |
| In paradise the wild birds call | J |
| - | |
| You only need to close your eyes | L |
| And go within your secret mind | M |
| And you'll be into paradise | N |
| I've learnt quite easily to find | M |
| Some linden trees and drowsy bees | O |
| A tall sweet hedge with the corn behind | M |
| - | |
| I will not have that harvest mown | P |
| I'll keep the corn and leave the bread | B |
| I've bought that field it's now my own | P |
| I've fifty acres in my head | B |
| I take it as a dream to bed | B |
| I carry it about all day | G |
| - | |
| Sometimes when I have found a friend | H |
| I give a blade of corn away | G |
