(6) "Memories"


(6)
“Memories”

10/14/16

Set a spell and listen
working in these fields
breaking the new sod
broken to the harness
generations ago here
descendants we’re called
some say GW raised us
our 71st great grand pa
was right here standing
sure my grand ma close
not letting him stray
oh the memories of then
passed on oral history
in the barns at night
with the chill of Fall
great armies passing
our history – roots here!
