The Country Quiet

As the wind whistles through the eaves
a robin calls in the distance,
a tone in need of warmth,
the sun trying to provide.

The country quiet has its advantages,
a peacefulness that lets one dream,
float their mind to places one may never
happen upon.

It is my reason for staying,
for closing off the outside world
for now...allowing me
time to heal and a quiet
that exists nowhere else.

No one believes me that in this quiet you can imagine anything anywhere and almost feel it happening. There is no place like (this) home.

Thank you

Oh my...how I would love to visit you and get away from this city noise.
Excellent imagery and thoughts here Maureen.

I have lived in the country all of my life and could never live in a city. There truly is a peace found in the country that seems much harder to find in the turmoil of the city. Well done M.

Yes I do understand your words and desire

Only problem is the rest of life that goes with it

I moved to the country years ago and everyone thought I had retired

I just had never intended to live there and now generations hedgehogs, parrots, blackbirds, finches, sparrows, turtledoves, a wood pidgeon

When did I ever work for me
