The Farmer

The Farmer

A Chapter by Emily B

Sometimes,

I think angels

wear blue jeans and faded t-shirts

and with the wisdom

of Solomon

they teach Sunday school

and raise children

and shine

under all the layers

of caked-on mud

and manure.

Somtimes this is true. I have found that those who still practice the old art of chivalry and care when it comes to family and children are typically those who remain true to things like farming, ranching, etc. They have not been tainted by the outside world of techo-readiness. Well done.

What a lovely poem this is, and indeed probably so true. These few words provoked images and thoughts. I like it very much. Well done!
