A Country Walk

I’ve been on a country walk And haven’t left my chair All because I read a poem Which placed me right there Where she stood in the meadow Amid dandelions and daffodils, And I heard the birds chattering Recounting their daily thrills. I sensed the freshness of spring, A special sweetness filled the air As I strolled steadily along, It was like really being there! Seeing the sights she saw Feeling the feelings she felt Made my heart leap for joy, All gloomy thoughts did melt. So, if you feel like a walk In the verdant countryside Then peruse a poem like me And on the air you’ll glide. Those worries of your day Well, we know they’ll still be there But for now enjoy the peacefulness By taking a country walk in your chair.
