Having A Farmer’s Heart

November 13, 2015 By Doris Stensland

When you have a farmer’s-heart, it lasts a lifetime.
From dawn to dusk you plant and reap,
and fight the weeds.
The years roll by. . . and then you retire!
BUT Farming is still on your mind . . . . .
You listen to the markets every day;
still awaken at 4:30 – 5:00 each morn,
take trips through the countryside
to check on other farmers’ crops.
This makes you recall your past feelings of accomplishment,
and the gladness you had each fall when your bins were filled.
To you a golden ear of corn will always be a beautiful thing . . . .
. . . when you have a farmer’s heart!
 
By Doris Stensland – November, 2015
