Farmer's Cradle

Farmer plowed the soil
In green field’s
Sow grow in fruity
Duty is finished
Finally he will sound sleep—

I appreciate this so much Lena. I believe farming is the most noble pursuit of humanity, along with warfare. No other toil strengthens men and women better. Rest is such a beautiful thing. J.A.B.
