Australia - A Country Road Poem by Paul Warren

On a country road by the shade of a gum tree
We stop and look about the scene so to see
The breeze makes the gum leaves glisten in the sun
It's paradise to live in when your life is as one
With natures call for the planet for us all
There is no hustle and bustle of a city at call

As I sit on the fallen tree's log
And watch the trickling stream it's no slog
How could you leave the warm summer breeze
In the shade of a gum tree on a ground that does please
When your mind wanders at work time
It goes back to that country road so sublime.
