Things I Love To Do

It's a lovely sunny day here in Scotland
on a day like this, I love to go away
use my bus pass travel wherever I choose
across our bonnie land have a splendid day

I am an avid reader of books or by kindle
so much to learn from gifted writers so bright
be history, biography, poetry or Christianity
such a feast to eat making sure of a good bite

Having been brought up in the countryside
I have always had the desire to walk
uphill or down dale looking at the scenery
the beauty of the greenery puts the mind in lock

Music has a way to fill us with ecstatic joy
my loves are varied since I was knee high
but now classical, country and worship music
holds me in rapt attention filling my sky

But my great love is with pen and paper
taking my thoughts to write a poetic rhyme
amazing how words can be so attractive
to bring such joy for me simply divine!
