The Farmer's Wife


EASY STREET PROMPTS

Although my illustration is very different from the original its choice was inspired by that on Easy Street.

THE FARMER'S WIFE.

There is our future, my darling!
All this is ours!
Drought, pests, floods, failed harvests, poor prices, isolation, monotony, discord............

Coping here:

ooops... this generation doesn't like farm poems ?

It's so true the poem, what farming holds to the farmers.

There's a tamil song that goes.... we got to sink our hands in mud..
for you to sink your hands in food..!!!

Salutations to all farmers who feed our tummies.
