The Farmers Wife Writes
She speaks sweet like talking candy
Her poetic words just sail
And somewhere in the metered fancy
Thrives a love that never fails.
Her dreams are soul discovered
Through the pen of her breast
Where the fire for writing rouses
Her thoughts of love at best.
Then in the terms of rhymers
When she spreads her heartfelt wares
An apprearance grows on the gilded page
Beyond her regular cares.
There in the gloried night skies
Where she dreams the dreams of wish
The drift of the falling starlight
Captures her words like a kiss.
And she cannot change the yearning
Of the passions in her soul
The words that bind and gather
All mesmerize and grow.
You say! Just a farmer's wife
To work and know no less
Her heritage that of labour years
With nothing else be blessed.
Awake those ears her freedom sings
With great notes amoung her words
Through the scales you'll hear only
Genius flowing from her birth.
