The Farmer (written for my late Uncle Arthur)

He is a farmer of these lands You can tell from his calloused hands He's worked many a plow See the sweat on his brow He spends his day out there in the field Waiting to see what the earth will revile Every day he gets up early to toil He's happiest out in the soil He loves the smell of fresh turned earth Deep in his soul he knows of its worth With a happy heart he'll sow his seeds He knows all the people it feeds So with a smile he'll go thru the day Listening to what the wind has to say He puts in all his hard labor And prays God shows him favor
