A Sunday Walk

On Sunday we walked upon the fells Down in the valley they rang church bells, Calling forth the flock to pray And cheering us on our way. We may not be sat on pews, But look upon God given views. A pastor's sermon we may miss But know the lord created this. How otherwise could there be, These mountains, of such majesty. Before this glory, here we stand Created surely, by his hand.

Enchanting, Gary. I live in the South East and feel the same about the Downs near me. +7 // Barry
