Songs Of A Farmer

Rating: 5.0


Farming, the primary occupation of our land;
The first occupation God ordained man to do;
With it we survive, without it we die;
In farming is my pride;
For if there is no farming; there will be famine.
The soil has my riches in it;
I will fight it with all my tools;
I will suffer it with manure to get my riches quickly;
And wet it always when the rain refuses to help me out;
I will compel it to hearken to the voice of my hoe;
When enemies compete with my riches;
I will fight them to the very end;
Then, I will wait till the day;
I can hold a sickle for harvesting

when you till the ground for you, your family and the nation to survive you have become a provider because that is what farmers do.
