Nature

Green grass growing atop a mountain,
   The sun is setting in the west.
The brook is like a glistening fountain,
   This is nature at its best.
No smog is in the air,
   No buildings to block my view.
Here i can live without a care,
   It's great up here, if only you knew.
The animals rome free,
   We all do as we please.
I sit and sip my hot tea,
   Atom this mountian, my mind is at ease.
There amidst the trees lies a lake, 
   Where the animals go to drink.
This is where i chose to make,
   My little bench, to sit, and think.
