I too walked this earth <br />Felt it's sadness and it's mirth <br />A farmer at heart; I worked this land <br />A two pocket work shirt and a farmers tan <br />A John Deere hat upon my head <br />A man of few words; I left a lot unsaid <br />Farming auctions, I could spend all day <br />Cutting, drying and baling hay <br />Fresh sweet corn from the Jorgensen's crop <br />An icy cold ginger ale pop <br />A treat for Brandy, always in my truck <br />I loved playing Lotto, I was full of luck <br />Breakfast at Ellie's and supper too <br />All of this I watched through eyes of blue<br /><br />Rhonda Baker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/richard-lee-smith/
