A GENTLE LAND

A GENTLE LAND

 

 

It knows no trouble this gentle land

where breezes sigh and tall trees stand

and flowing rivers splash and bubble

a gentle land that knows no trouble.

 

Where chimneys reach up to the sky

and friendly neighbours live nearby

with trees of oak and elm and beech

up to the sky the chimneys reach.

 

With summer days of gold and blue

when fields of stubble frame the view

and natures music gently plays

with gold and blue of summer days.
