It’s hard to believe that still
Today in modern times
Technology has been frozen
It’s exciting though, I find
The Amish way of living
Is old-fashioned for today
Using still the horse and plow
Wanting life to stay that way
They live off the fertile lands
No chemicals do they use
Baking bread from their own wheat
There is nothing they abuse
Most of us can’t imagine this
But it’s so fascinating to me
For their world is truly
The way life used to be!
