The Land Poem by Randy McClave

The land will give birth to the grass and the trees
Which in turn will give life to the wind and the breeze,
The land will be tilled and taught, so it will give birth
To both the artist, and also the hungry of the earth.
Some people will see land as a filthy, mucky and grimy dirt
What I see is the bringer of life, and not a barren desert,
A farmer will work and worry to revitalize the land as his goal
Then when he dies; the land will swallow up his body and soul.
