The Retreat

A place to go,
When I'm feeling low,
A place to hide,
From the world outside.
No questions asked,
No people pass.
A place to hear... more

Description

A place to go,
When I'm feeling low,
A place to hide,
From the world outside.
No questions asked,
No people pass.
A place to hear just nature calling,
In early autumn the leaves just falling.
In spring new growth will say, "Hello,
I've just sprung up to let you know,
There's more to life than people show."
Winter brings its own delight,
A wood fire inside will burn so bright,
Like old friends who are out of sight,
Gone to pastures new I hope,
To a world of peace where they can cope.
But what of summer you may ask?
Summer is the time to sing,
When alone with nature you can sing,
A tune of your own with words in mind,
Of the babe you were before mankind,
Changed you from a trusting child,
To something just a touch more wild,
Where nature is the place to go,
To come to terms with what you now know.
