My Getaway

Such a peaceful place this spot I have found. Where no one hardly ever comes around. A sparkling brook so clear and clean, Helps to set this almost perfect scene. The wildlife here they show no fear, Why yesterday I got to pet a deer. He came to me as if he knew, That I was a friend and he was too. The brook is filled with trout and such, While the vegetation is so green and lush. I come here often just to clear my mind, And enjoy this new place such a treasured find. It’s really not that far from home, I just close my eyes and leave my mind to roam. Then I wind up here in this magic place. An escape for awhile till the day I must face. Well I have to go I hear my name, But I’ll be back for some more of the same.
