Country Morning
By Lisa Noe

I wait for the morning as the sun rises bright
I see it shining oh so very bright
I smell the honeysuckle out my back door
While dancing to music on the kitchen floor.
The music of birds singing chirp chirp chirp
A cow saying moo while grazing in the dirt
My horse baying, waiting for hay
My husband working, he can’t stay
Oh country morning I thank God for you
I’ll work hard all day until I am through
Down on the farm the noise is peace
Sizzling bacon sizzles so hot, popping my niece
She screams yeoh yeoh yeoh ow
The cat meows meow meow meow
But down on the farm the pig says oink oink
The sheep says baa baa
The dog spends the morning barking bark bark,
While I spend the morning playing the harp.
