I Simply Want To Be

I simply want to be Where the wind blows free Where the air is crisp and clean No skyscrapers to be seen No vehicles everywhere Or pollution in the air Just natures fields of green With a flowing ravine No hatred nor anger here Only peace ,kindness and nothing to fear A simple ,tranquil place where my being is at rest Where l am truly content and blessed!

Where city lights don’t keep us from seeing stars and night and everything we say isn’t taken as an invitation to fight. I wanna go there with you, Deb. I bet it’s like that in Milton Creek because we keep it that way.
