Country Walk Poem by Paul Holmes

I’ve been on a country walk
And haven’t left my chair
All because I read a poem
Which placed me right there
Where she stood in the meadow
Amid dandelions and daffodils,
And I heard the birds chattering
Recounting their daily thrills.

I sensed the freshness of spring,
A special sweetness filled the air
As I strolled steadily along,
It was like really being there!
Seeing the sights she saw
Feeling the feelings she felt
Made my heart leap for joy,
All gloomy thoughts did melt.

So, if you feel like a walk
In the verdant countryside
Then peruse a poem like me
And on the air you’ll glide.
Those worries of your day
Well, we know they’ll still be there
But for now enjoy the peacefulness
By taking a country walk in your chair.
