JUNE HARVEST By M ARGARKT L. McBride The farmer plods along the field: With plow he upturns earth to yield A damper richness hid from view: A pause to sift some through his hand And offer thanks for fertile land. Each seed is given tenderest care, Each one is blessed u’ith sun and air, Each watered, leatched o’er as it groies; Then reap and bind and shock and thresh. Both seed and man to start afresh. Like grains of leheat ice then go forth. Ahead, a chance to prove our worth. Your guiding hand has shoien the way To ne-w exciting days ahead: We’re glad and sad, but unafraid.
