The Perfect Country Scene Poem by Marilyn Lott

Just imagine a country setting
Of rolling rusty-red hills
Animals roaming across the plains
Water tank and whirling windmills

Looking across the fields I watch
Cattle in the shade of a tree
A perfect summer day as they
Chew their cuds so peacefully

Life seems slower in this picture
There’s time to watch the moss grow
Leisure relaxing afternoons
Oh, what a wonderful place to go

If only the world could be
In this perfect country world
Away from the busy city life
Where so much stress is hurled

Yep, if everyone could take time out
Pause in this country scene
I think we’d all be better off
Make this reality and not a dream!
