A Warm Summer Day
A Warm Summer’s Morn
Sitting on the porch, on a warm summer’s morn
Many shades of green, paint grass, leaves and corn
Wheat fields are showing they long to mature
The corn plants are stretching out, proud and secure
Soybeans are growing so fast in their fields
Crops are foretelling excellent yields
Songbirds are happy, singing, eating birdseed
This farmer’s content, and thankful indeed
What a beautiful summer day
Warm, not unbearably hot and humid
The songbirds form a lovely chorus
A symphony of all their individual songs
They seem excitedly happy today
Orioles never stayed with us so long before
The other varieties are too numerous to mention
But their vast array of colors is a spectacular sight
They each seek their turn at the feeders
The numerous shades of green among the trees
Are another glorious sight to behold
Never more obvious before
Perhaps my perception was never this great
tremendously impacting this day
Even the crops seem to be smiling today
Wheat shows a hint of gold
Step into a corn field,- you can hear it grow
As it reaches for the sky
Soybeans are showing a spurt of growth
All crops are forecasting excellent yields
After so many years of financial strain
The Board of Trade hints at generously compensating us
We actually at least perceive to be rewarded for our efforts

Today, I am content!
I wish everyone could say the same
Thank you, LORD
