There I was
Just sitting in a chair,
The glory of Nature
Shining around me.
Lunch eaten
Coffee to hand.
The morning spent
Showing newcomers
The Art of Croquet.
Great fun,
Many laughs
Had by all.
Such sincere thanks
When they came to the end,
Off they went.
There was I,
On my own,
Sitting in a chair,
At home with Nature.
Nature’s green land
Surrounding me.
There were few bird sounds
So I uplifted my life
By listening,
Listening to Satie.
His Gymnopedies sailed
Sailed through my heart
To join Nature’s realm,
Augmenting its wonderful glory.
