A Charmed Lifestyle

As I stand upon this hill,

Surrounded by degrees.

Three sixty, if you will..

Minus wind, plus some C's.

I see field bins shining bright,

And headers cutting rows.

Dust hovering in mid flight,

Full trucks crawl, oh so slow.

I see sheep beneath the trees.

Their stomachs full, bellies round.

Waiting out the evening breeze, 

'fore they walk that stubble down.

I see birds soaring high,

Swooping down on fact, not hunch.

Nailing unsuspecting mice,

Snatching up their fill of lunch. 

I see clear blue, dots of white,

Golden rays, and hazy waves

Of heat beating down til night.

A cool breeze ends summer days.

I feel pride in this wide view,

My heart filled with joy, I smile.

For I love this, just as you.

The charms of a country lifestyle.
