The Oxen

Shoulder to shoulder all day
long
The oxen labor across the field,
The pace is slow, but the pillow is
strong,
And stubble and tussock yield
The plowman halts as the sun
goes down,
And leaves his pillow near the
furrowed loan,
Then slowly over the meadow
brown
He follows the oxen home.
Side by side in their stanchions
there
The oxen stand at the close of
day,
are they and free from
care,
Eating their evening hay,
They have borne the yoke from
sun to sun,
Shoulder to shoulder in true
accord,
And now they reap, when the
day is done,
The laborer's just reward.
