Draw Me a Country Life

Sketch me an outline

of a farm

where people want to live,

with playhouse

and outbuildings too,

nestled in a

nectar of woods, a hill crowding

an old barn

and home ready

for laughter, with children

and flocks of chickens.

Show me where horses can dance

on pastures, a gravel road

and baby blue sky

with colours that can charm

autumn emotions,

calico leaves dropping by,

now paint that picture for me.
