That’s Not always The Case

Times are hard here; down on the farm. Daddy has just lost his
winter job. Mama don’t know what we are going to do. I here so many
powerful people say, If you want to find work you can today. But that’s
not always the case. Sometimes no matter how hard you work, you can’t
always make your own way.

Wo! this is sad!
the ones that say these things obviously have never lived on a farm. In the first place it takes
much guts ti live on a farm.
This is a very good write and I live in the Country where I grew up as a kid. I remember when my dad garden allday.
Course I realize the type of farm u are talking about but still it's the same priciple as Mom, us gorls would can the veggies that didn't sale or give away.
Those folks that preach that stuuf needs to be put on a farm for a year. Beet theycouldn't survive.
Keep up the great writing.
luv, huggs, prayer, hope,
emy
