A SIMPLE CHOICE - ã 1996

To live in town or country,

is a simple choice for me!

The one place I could never live,

is in the big city!

I cannot get away too soon,

from all of mankind’s clamour!

to the restful peace of country air,

and to hear woodpeckers hammer!

The panoramic scenery,

of an unrestricted view,

of hills and dales and woodland fells,

where streams and rivers flow!

To see the earth’s pure bounty

As once, it all had been!

The fresh clean scented country air,

Fills the centre of my being!

I’ll always love the countryside,

there’s no better place to be!

The countryside is fields ahead,

of the frantic big city!
