I Shook a Local--MINNESOTANS --Farmers-sturdy-Hand
I shook a Local,
FARMERS
HAND
His
--GRIP
Was
---ROUGH
And
----HARD
-----FIRM
And
------STEADY
And
MINNESOTA-FARMER-STRONG
I could tell, that this--MINNESOTA
F---A---R---M---E---R
For about--the--PAST---60---YEARS
Has been--WORKING
Every--------FOUR------SEASONS
NIGHT--and--DAY
On his
MINNESOTA
FARM-LAND
From the LOOK
On his--FACE, he was
WEATHERED--OLD-GRAY-and-WORN
But the
SMILE
On
His
FACE
And the,
W-I-N-K-from-his
EYE
We're so
Down--HOME--Friendly
HARD--WORKING
--------HONEST
----------------SINCERE
-----------------------KIND
----------------------------CARING
---------LOVING------------------
And
W-A-R-M
When we--GREETED
He-DID-NOT-SAY
M-U-C-H
But the
FIRM
HAND--SHAKE
Which gave my soft hand
-----------------------ACHE
From
His
Weathered, and Caloused
HAND
And a,
WINK
Of an
EYE
With a CRACK, of a
S---M---I---L---E
Said
It
ALL
With
H--------O--------N--------E--------S--------T--------Y
KINDNESS
And
Deep-DEEP-Deep
MINNESOTA
Hard-Working
FARMERS
R--E--S--P--E--C--T
As
SUCH
