A Farmers Poem…..

“I don’t like Poetry”
Said the husband to the wife..
“I’ve no time for such things
I live a Farmers life”
But the wife said “dear husband”
“you live a poets poem’
do you not reap the harvest
of seeds by which you’ve sown?
I’ve seen you bow your head in thanks
when God answered prayers for rain
i’ve seen your eyes shine with pride
with every baby calf you name”
” I guess poetrys okay” he said
as he kissed that farmers wife
and silently he thanked the Lord
she saw poetry in their life….
