please use this topic to post short poems/ditties about country life!

I found this one on sheepstuff.com

Let the Wealthy & Great,
Roll in Splendor and State,
I envy them not, I declare it,
I eat my own Lamb,
My Chickens & Ham,
I shear my own fleece & I wear it,
I have Lawns, I have Bowers,
I have Fruits, I have Flowers,
The Lark is my morning alarmer,
so jolly boys now,
Here's God Speed the Plough,
Long Life & Success to the Farmer.


English Verse circa 1890



You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands - You shall be happy and it shall be well with you. -Psalm 128.2

That is such a fun verse! Thanks for posting it - I'm going to be on the lookout for some others...Good idea!

XOXO, Libbie
