The Farmer...





People will look down at the farmer;

A man crouching in between plants; with weather beaten boots.



People will look down and wonder

Why he chose to dwell near brownish roots?




The farmer will look up and reply:

"I feed you and I feed the world";

"I like the sun, the rain and the changing sky"

"I am helped by the Bee and I help the Bird"





The choice to plough the land

Might have been out of Poverty,

A decision made my fore-fathers before hand

Or influenced by the Love of Nature and Simplicity...
