The Country Road Let’s walk the country road and faithfully keep cadence with the heartbeat of the wild where life, unveiled in naked truth, flows free. Let’s walk the country road and faithfully find simple joy with each new day, and see the glow of innocence just like a child. Let’s walk the country road and faithfully keep cadence with the heartbeat of the wild. © Sandra M.

I envision two young kids carrying fishing poles walking along this road toward the pond. Nicely done Sandra.

I live 5 minutes walk from a lovely beach on sunny days (when we get them) I like to go and sit by the beach and write. Lots of wonderful countryside to walk in - i take mum for walks at least 4 times a week people are amazed at how far and how fast she goes - hope I am as amazing she is if I get to her grand age:-) Hugs Jan xx
