"""As Days Go By"" This old barn still stands in rural Nebraska. It is showing signs of wear and a tear from all the past seasons and years of hard work from generations of family farmers. I wanted to take you back into the scene through the old gate and picket fence to give you a feeling of nostalgia from days gone by. The poetry of Penny J Niemi in her section the Barn resonated with me with her following words because to me the barn truly is and I quote the: ""nerve center, muscle center, heart center, life center"" of the family farm. Through summer and winter springtime and harvest over a lifetime spent on the farm, the farmers love of the land, crops and livestock still remains."
