Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

A Farmer's Right Proud

     Tilling the fields ‘neath a hot blazing sun
        Removing the weeds when the rain's pouring down

     Baling the hay in the heat and humidity
        Breathe the dust of the chicken coop, abject humility

     A farmer’s right proud of his livestock and crops 
        He tends them and serves them ‘till the day that he drops
