Countryside Freedom

Out in the country, there’s space to be free,
To walk or to sit as I please.
A spot I have found, to sit on the ground,
Wrapping my arms around my knees.

The birds above fly, in a clear blue sky,
Their singing refreshes my day.
A squirrel I see, high up in a tree,
Collecting nuts to hide away.

I get up to look, what’s down by the brook,
Where the reeds bend in the rivers flow.
I see fish swim by, and a dragonfly,
There’s a duck with ducklings in tow.

A red setting sun, says today is done,
As nature settles down for the night.
As darkness draws near, the stars now appear,
And I walk home under the starlight.
