A Farmer's Field

There is a farmfield stretches outward
A red barn with some evergreen trees
Behind the barn a river is flowing
Sometimes sailboats passes and 
       row boats
The water is clear blue calm

In the grassy field are cows and buffalo
They come to fill their stomach with grass
Then stay out all morning and noon
Enjoying their time outdoors
While the farmer does his chores
Then work that needs to be done 
inside the barn
