Wendell Berry

I have reread this poem three times- I seem to find something in it each time I read it. Wendell Berry urges us to play by our own set of rules. He finds meaning in everything that a culture of factory farming would end, and lets his stewardship of his land and life be his guiding principle. He tells us to take the time to realize the truly important things, things that cannot be valued by fixing a price sticker on them.
