Come To The Harvest<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

By Gail McNaughton, September 4, 2012<\/p>\n

Come to the harvest,<\/p>\n

And stay with us forever.<\/p>\n

Sit at our table,<\/p>\n

And find comfort in friendship.<\/p>\n

Be one in spirit,<\/p>\n

As the bounty of what we grow,<\/p>\n

Is shared by all.<\/p>\n

The leaves gently falling,<\/p>\n

Are a reminder that,<\/p>\n

A season of Thanksgiving is upon us,<\/p>\n

And that winter is just around the corner.<\/p>\n

It is time for roast turkey, pumpkin pie,<\/p>\n

Turnips, squash, potatoes and apples,<\/p>\n

All sewn up it makes a wonderful harvest meal.<\/p>\n

Our lives are bountiful,<\/p>\n

And the markets filled with produce,<\/p>\n

Remind us that we are rich,<\/p>\n

With the rewards of our labour,<\/p>\n

And our attention to the crops,<\/p>\n

That we have nurtured,<\/p>\n

With love in our hearts for the land,<\/p>\n

And the people we serve.<\/p>\n

It is our intention to feed our families, and communities,<\/p>\n

And this is the mantra of the farmer,<\/p>\n

And why we invest our time.<\/p>\n

So come to the harvest,<\/p>\n

And stay with us forever.<\/p>\n

Sit at our table,<\/p>\n

And find comfort in friendship.<\/p>\n

Be one in spirit,<\/p>\n

As the bounty of what we grow,<\/p>\n

Is shared by all.<\/p>\n
