This is love and life at the basic level, and I find that absolutely perfect. My only question is what if he gets a daughter and not a son. Hmmm. I know, she'll have daddy wrapped around his little finger. Thank you for sharing this entire presentation with us.

Aaaaah... the vision of the simple farmer and his wife!! :) ;) Using nature/natural imagery -- the medium in which the farmer works and devotes his life -- to describe even his wife and their relationship is a wonderful literary tool here in your crafting!! ;) Thanx for sharing! ;) Yvette

Hi gypsy, good descriptions of a woman and a man and what they portray. The womanliness of giving herself to a man I like they way they are embracing each other and the man praying for a son by her to help him work the land. The softness of the woman and the roughness of the man complement each other. Dove

Wow. That's about as stark and basic as life gets. It's like tge couple who had a baby to help their daughter who needed a kidney donor who was a perfect match. There's "practical," and then there's "um, that kind of crosses the line."

Nicely written Free Verse Poem. I have often seen the tenderness of a woman, soften the physical strengt and temper of a rough man.. if Icwere to express this in some circles today, I'd be ousted.
Thank you for sharing

Your thought-provoking verse is written from the man's perspective as he views the woman in a rather ethereal/romanticised light while he is a man of the earth with a purpose to produce a son to perpetuate his role. This reminds me of DH Lawrence's themes in which he sees women aspiring to more spiritual needs while men are far more earth-bound and preoccupied with establishing roots and descendants. Thanks for sharing your interesting free verse, beautifully presented. Debbie

I like the contrast of the woman with her lovely camellia countenance and fragrant jasmine with the gruff, manual laboring farmer who loves her and hopes for a son from their union.
