The BARN 

It stands solitary on this farm,

this isolated dilapidated barn.

It wouldn’t be a farm without this barn.

This farm, this acreage

of green and brown,

cattle, and horses,

tractors, and trucks.

It wouldn’t be a barn without this farm. 

From the farm comes the harvest

and in the barn goes the produce,

and from the barn comes the crops

to feed a family gathered at table.

Without this farm, without this barn,

no one would eat.

Let us give thanks for the

Barn and Farm.
