the lottery winner

This is for all who like me desire to go Crofting / smallholding / farming

Farmer Brown had such a surprise

With his first lottery he won first prize

Six million pounds they had to present

So off to the studios the whole family went

Tell me said the presenter, with informal chat

The prize money you won are you happy with that

Brown gave a nod but did not uttered a sound

The presenter smiled seeking help, looking round

So how will you spend it he said with a frown?

Silence is all that came from farmer Brown

You could buy a new tractor you’ll need one of those

New furniture and wardrobes for the wives new clothes

Sell up and holiday buy a new farm in the sun

Buy a combined harvester you must need one

How about new stock a new bull for the cows

Some Deer, ostriches, new boar for the sows

Have house extension, new barns and new byres

Fit central heating, swimming pool, or fancy log fires

The family went into discussion and when it was done

Brown announced, we’ll carry on farming until it’s all gone
