Corn Silage and Other Poems is a lovely book of poetry and pictures of farming and outdoors life in rural Wisconsin, written by Robert Owens.  It is especially poignant for me for I, as a boy, milked those cows, pulled that silage cart, swung those tobacco axes, and hung that tobacco (I preferred the peak).  Though the lines of poetry seems especially familiar to me, anyone, I believe, can imagine themselves a boy on a farm and  the wonder and emotion of such an experience.  Owens brings this to life.
