Down On The Farm

by David Knape

From dawn to dusk
down on the farm,
they worked so hard
from fields to barn

A simple life
yet not forlorn,
happiness grew tall
with cotton, corn

Along with crops
something else was born,
true grit was raised
down on the farm

Lives grew complete
forever formed
by memories made
down on the farm.
