He has managed <br />To plough his field <br />And the corn in the <br />Eye of the storm <br />Has risen from the <br />Pressure of the winds <br />Cobs have formed <br />And tassels like <br />A Chinese beard are <br />Swinging in cool <br />Breeze in the field. <br /> <br />Weaver birds abound <br />And the farmer's efforts <br />Seem to avail only in the empty cobs <br />Monkeys too have a field day <br />But will the farmer fear them <br />And plant his corn <br />In his own house?<br /><br />Tony Adah<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-corn-farmer/
