An English Tapestry

Today I walked in fields of green
I wondered at the sight
I saw rabbits playing in the grass
I saw birds high in flight

The sun was bright I felt its warmth
It filled my every part
Clean clear air filled my lungs
And peace filled up my heart

I paused a while to take it in
This tapestry so fine
And as I sat and gazed around
This whole world was mine
