city girl
marries
farm boy
he’s blond
she, brunette,
(haircolor, that is)
does chocolate
milk really come
from brown cows?
better get a scoop
bull— is piling up!
digging ditch together
is newlywed boot camp;
a “hopelessly in love“
truce to trench warfare
loading livestock
is a loaded activity
testing marriage vows
(and assorted oaths)
can’t throw bales?
ok, you can drive but
easy with that clutch…
hay, hey, haaeey!
till debt ?
“no-till” death
do us part.

Oh, this is clever wordplay, and it gave me a smile! But I liked the reality of it, & the love underneath.

This is such a cute and creative description of your marriage. Love the line about chocolate milk. I can only imagine life on a farm was eye opening for you.

the chocolate milk 🙂 i really wasn’t quite that naive but it makes a great line!

smiles. whole lot of adjusting to do with all that change…hard enough that first year learning to come together…debt is one thing that def will drive a wedge…but it can be done…not easy
