Verse 4 - Tubbs

Verse 5 - Everyone

 

Autumn's generous hand,

Golden grains and fruits so grand.

Harvest's abundant stand,

Bounty of the fertile land,

Nature's gift, unplanned.

 

Silent scarecrow stands,

In fields of gold and green lands.

Moonlight dance expands,

Harvest joy in straw-clad hands,

Autumn's festive bands.

 

Sounds of harvest sing,

Cornstalks rustle, bells do ring.

Children's laughter spring,

Echoes of joy they bring,

To autumn's offering.

 

Baker kneads with care,

Grains into bread, fair and square.

Aroma fills air,

Harvest's gratitude to share,

Bounty beyond compare.

 

Harvest moon shines bright,

On fields bathed in soft twilight.

Cycle of day and night,

Seed to fruit, nature's delight,

Harvest festival's highlight.

We had a fantastic tip to St. Fagans National Museum of History yesterday. We were able to explore the Rhyd-y-car Terrace to see the differences in how people lived in 1805, 1855, 1895, 1925, 1955 and 1985. We then went and saw the Melin Bompren Corn Mill which used a water wheel to convert corn to flour and heard all about it's history. The highlight of our day was the Victorian lesson experience at the Maestir school where we practised the '3 R's' - Reading, Writing and Arithmetic!
