Bury this old Illinois farmer with respect.
He slept the Illinois nights of his life
After days of work in Illinois cornfields.
Now he goes on a long sleep.
The wind he listened to in the cornsilk and the tassels,
the wind that combed his red beard
zero mornings when the snow
lay white on the yellow ears
lay white on the yellow ears
in the bushel basket at the corncrib,
The same wind will now blow
over the place here where his hands
must dream of Illinois corn.
must dream of Illinois corn.
Thank you for visiting, and sharing my nostalgia!
