Farmer Fred's Wisdom

Saw Farmer Fred in his field bailing hay.
Stopped a moment and gave him a wave.
He shouted back and I heard him say:

“You must make hay when the sun does shine!”
“You must harvest grapes at just the right time.”
“If you wish to ferment a great wine.”
“A mustard seed of faith will still move mountains in our time.” 
“Some even greater than the rocky kind.”

Farmer Fred is, indeed, quite the Sage! ~ Parsley, Sage for the Thymes
