August 23rd…….“SHARE WITH US SOME OF YOUR FEELINGS AND SENTIMENTS ABOUT THE SEASON OF FALL”.
POEM – “Fall Slumber” by N. Elliott Noorlun. Created November 10th, 2015
In the Fall, Earth tilts her slumbering head,
Upon God’s loving chest,
Like tottering head, Of weary child,
Upon her mother’s breast.
Elliott’s mother, Clarice, took this Fall foliage photo of their farm home that used to exist three miles northwest of Kiester, Minnesota. Year was 1965.
I may be only one oat seed in a field of millions, yet I have a story to share of beginnings on our beloved farm in southern Minnesota and beyond to life as I've seen it to this point. Famous? No. Gifted? Unlikely. Yet, I want to leave a legacy to my children and grandchildren of who this gentle Norwegian man was. My happy times, sad times, successes and failures. Someday, those who are tiny now, will have this volume to come to and get to know this Norwegian Farmer's Son.
