Summer On The Farm
~
I remember summer days
Spent on Grandpa's farm;
I always had to feed the chickens
Out behind the barn.
~
Plenty of beans and cornbread,
And potatoes fried golden brown,
Were always on Grandma's table;
More than enough to go around.
~
Out on the veranda,
After the work was done,
We recalled the days events,
As we watched the setting sun.
~
We watched the moon and stars appear;
The evenings seemed so warm.
Oh, how I miss the summer days
Spent on Grandpa's farm.
