Along a Country road Along a country road, I see, Old fences, farms, a tapestry Of rural life put on display. Fields of wheat and oats and hay. Gardens where the corn is high. Weather-vanes that catch the eye. Dogs and horses, cats and cows, Tractors, combines and old plows. There's a feeling in the air Nothing much has changed out there. Life goes on in the same way, People lived it yesterday! Betty Lou Hebert [This message has been edited by Trillium (05-31-2002 06:02 PM).] |

you farm girls sure have long and pleasant memories of country life. This is lovely. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

Joyce: Thanks. Aside from modern conveniences, much of farm life stays the same I think. At least that is my observation of the local farms. |

pegasus111: I suppose the memories of the farm stayed with me so strongly, because it was part of my childhood. Now, though I live in the country, there's no farming involved, however, we have a number of farms in our area. There is much good in that kind of life. Thanks for your remarks. Betty Lou Hebert |

This is just wonderful, could almost smell the clean fresh air, and see the cows in the pasture. Love it. Bonnie |
