THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
by KATHLEEN PARTRIDGE
COUNTRY AND TOWN
Why does a meadow grow peace with the clover?
Why does a tree lift your heart in its bough?
Why are there smiles in a line of fat ducklings,
Songs in the milk churns and health in the plough?
Why does a lamb find your tenderest heartbeat?
Why does the growing corn banish your frowns?
Not only for those who are born in the country,
But also for those coming out from the towns?
