Please Take Me Away Poem by Ray Hansell

Please take me away from here
To a field of soft green grass
Where a gentle breeze cools the air
As white clouds drift overhead

Take me to a hillside
We’ll climb up to the top
We’ll laugh and sing each day away
While the sun washes our souls
As love fills our hearts with joy

I want to leave the city
With all its concrete and steel
I want to leave the dirty air
I want to leave the crowded streets
Won’t you please take me away
