The Farmers' Wares

by Huberjack

A little bit of countryside
enhances urban atmosphere,
as each and every weekend morn
the farmers and their wares appear.

They've driven far to bring their goods,
been wide awake since four o'clock,
fresh fruits and shiny vegetables,
their very best, from private stock.

While supermarkets' volumes need
the harvests of the largest crops,
the smaller farms and dairies thrive
on growers' pride and country shops.

Enhancing urban atmosphere,
the farmers and their wares appear.
