Beneath the sun 's golden warm th and the clear azure heavens, tiny sprouts peep above the rich earth. Patiently, the farmer nurtures them un til, with the arrival of summer, the fields are filled to the brim with their succulent yield. The gilded leaves of autumn are illuminated by the orange glow of sun. A sharp fresh breeze rustles the corn stalks, laden with full maize-colored ears, their gift to the fall harvest.
