Perth Hwfa

The joy of the peace that comes.
From being away from the humdrum.
A cottage so many miles away.
Creates tranquility for the time you stay.

The winds can blow and they can howl. These thick walls wrap around our souls.
Log fire burning and crackling away. 
Views to look at of mountains beyond the bay.

Nature unfolding before the eyes.
The rain creates a magic in the skies
The sound of water hitting the panes
It relaxes the mind to have such days.

Take a step back to a forgotten way.
Huddling round an inglenook watching the flames.
Listening to wind in the trees. 
Watching the light dance with the leaves.

Relaxation hits deep and hard.
A few years without such disregard!
To the rules and limits placed on our days.
Makes you realise how much you need to get away.
