Ballad to an Iowa Farmer and Other Reflections contains nearly fifty of Clark Mollenhoff's most memorable poems. In addition to the title poem, a moving tribute to Iowa's agrarian pioneers, the book includes poems such as "Tommy", written early in Mollenhoff's career. Many of the poems describe scenes of an Iowa childhood; others convey the emotions of a youn serviceman, away from home for the first time. Here are the experiences of a good friend, a loving parent, a mourning survivor of war, poems that capture a mood or portray a scene in language straight from the heartland. |
