Rugged, Rustic and Beautiful

In the country of the clans Scenery abounds Around our cities of old And our villages and towns Rugged and rustic Greens, grays and browns Adorn our countryside They are natures gowns Plants come alive At the start of spring New buds appear Awaiting joys do they bring In the summer sunshine They burst into life Colours so delightful Radiant and rife The autumn closes No longer the colours parade They are like scenes in a play Their fading blooms, are summers last serenade As the temperature falls And the winter months settle in We also enjoy it's beauty Until the spring, springs again In the country of the clans In our mountains and glens Natures seasons delight Amen

Hey, I forget where you are from. Sounds like the British Isles. Nice display of the changing seasons, James!

Love this one. I can see the spring with the shades of green, blooms of trees then the summer flowers, fall's dying hour, and the dead of winter all stark and cold. Keep the creative and magical pen flowing. Merry Christmas Day. Sara
