In the confines of this
throne I can survey a mini
kingdom of rolling contoured
fields of green and brown,
contented Holstems resting
in the shade of the pasture
while the heifers wade at the
edge of the pond, the giant
cluster of Norway maples
that envelopes the house and
the shining silver of the sun
on the barn roof.
Behind my throne, the disc

corn stubble under fresh
brown earth to prepare for
another season of waving

corn fields. Occasionally, the

visitors, seagulls descending
from the blue skies of May to
squabble in the machinery’s

Ruling monarchs are
welcome to wrestle with
matters of state, trade pacts,
military maneuvers, civil
unrest, territorial visits and
legislative affairs that ac

I’d much rather share in
the rewarding stewardship
of the kingdom of soil and
seed, planting and harvest,
fresh air, sunshine and
warm ram, and of the
production of that most
precious essence of life; food
for a hungry world.
