A Country Boy At Heart Poem by ANDREW BLAKEMORE
A Country Boy At Heart
I want to climb the hillsides
And to see each wondrous view,
And find the peace I long for there
It's all I wish to do,
I want to walk down winding lanes
And to see the lands of green,
And to smell the pretty flowers there
And breathe the air so clean.
I just want to change my world
I need a brand new start,
And leave the strife of city life
A country boy at heart.
I want to cross the meadows
And to see the woodlands grow,
I want to find serenity
Wherever I do go,
I long to see the rivers
And the gently flowing streams,
Which sparkle in the sunlight there
Within a place of dreams.
I just want to change my world
I need a brand new start,
And leave the strife of city life
A country boy at heart.
I want to see the wheat that blows
Within the fields of gold,
I want to find the freedom
And the treasures there untold,
I want to hear the birdsongs
In early morning skies,
And to witness every sunset
And to watch each dawning rise.
I just want to change my world
I need a brand new start,
And leave the strife of city life
A country boy at heart.
I guess it's what all people want. to be free and do as you please without all the strain of the city life and walls. Great poem; -)

Nothing is better than A Country Boy At Herat, being raised in the deep mountains I can relate to this poem I don't like the city life either but put me out in the middle of nowhere away from all the people give me my freedom and my wildlife and I'm a country girl at home! Wonderfully written!
