Getting Away From It All Poem by Michael Kersting

Farewell, Farewell, noisy city, I have had enough of your crowded streets, pollution and incessant babble.

I shall go into the Woods and build myself a cabin amongst the chirping morning birds and summer flowers.

Where I can sit by the babbling brook and read my books of Poetry and Philosophy in Peace.

Where I can look at the wonderful sunset painting the emplty sky with its beautiful colours..

Where I can smell the uplifting fragrance of the wild flowers and enjoy the beauty of Nature while I can.

For I am but a passing shadow in this mystical journey called Life
with it's mixture of Joy and Sadness.
