English countryside
A glow spreads across the sky
Like the warm smile of a girl so shy
As dawn by stealth creeps in
The sounds of perky birds builds up to a din
The smell of happy flowers so fine
Opening joyously, soaking the sunshine
The sound of distant rumbling
Of the herd of horses approaching
The gush of a stream sweeping
Across the wet stones leaping
Searching for something
Ceaselessly wandering
The trees become taller, majestic too
Glistening beams breaking through,
The leafy roof top, that covers so well
Grander than a citadel
Light up my path so serene
Pierce my soul, calm sets in
A rabbit darts and disappears
A lamb dancing, skipping appears
Then cuddles to mum for suckling
Tail now furiously waggling
In this wonderful countryside
So free, such beauty, I do confide
Like the warm smile of a girl so shy
As dawn by stealth creeps in
The sounds of perky birds builds up to a din
The smell of happy flowers so fine
Opening joyously, soaking the sunshine
The sound of distant rumbling
Of the herd of horses approaching
The gush of a stream sweeping
Across the wet stones leaping
Searching for something
Ceaselessly wandering
The trees become taller, majestic too
Glistening beams breaking through,
The leafy roof top, that covers so well
Grander than a citadel
Light up my path so serene
Pierce my soul, calm sets in
A rabbit darts and disappears
A lamb dancing, skipping appears
Then cuddles to mum for suckling
Tail now furiously waggling
In this wonderful countryside
So free, such beauty, I do confide

My comment which is not mine
"I love the verse that,mild and blandBreathes of green fields and open sky.
I love the muse that in your hand
Bears flowers of native poesy." (J.Clare)
