HOMESTEADERS
by ELMA HELGASON
A wee log cabin, set beside the trees;
A crooked rail fence, made to Hold the cow;
A toddling child, to tan, in sun and breeze,
And follow up the furrows of the plow.
A patch of grain—the pride of eager hearts;
Some baby chicks to peep about the door;
In simple style, the little homestead starts,
The wilderness unconquered, lies before.
A wagon trail, that winds the valley down,
Long hours of sun, where weary horses plod;
Here humble folk, with no wide world renown,
Keep kindly faith with mankind, and with God.
