The Farmer

by Ti Wright

 

Many stories told

in the well weathered

skin.

 

Just another day

hoping for rain,

cattle to be worked,

seeds to be planted,

worn out machinery

and

mangled fences

to be

rescued.

 

The rich brown soil

beneath his hard-soled boots,

the smell of cattle manure

hovering over him in the air,

it’s the life he’s chosen,

a life he must work

every day for.

 

His worn out body

crumbling into

the thriving

soil,

his growing hair

sprouting into

ears of corn,

pods of beans,

purple blossoms of hay.

the words seeping

from his lips

mooing to be fed.

his heart

bursting into drops of rain

and rays of sunlight

to nourish

the well tended farm.
