My home in the woods is where I find peace
In this place, the wild fowl and I mingle
Elsewhere, I lack the same sense of release
It is nature that makes my spine tingle
Oak trees on the hill, the river below
The aromas of earth’s sweet revival
Water o’er the dam, as white as the snow
Important to our very survival
The mornings in sun and evenings in shade
Astounding highlights I must recommend
The dew on the grass, kissing every blade
Innate wonder empowering each bend
My woodland home is indeed a blessing
A gift from God, worthy of professing

May the Lord Bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and walk by your side. With love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister Barbie.

My father-in-law once had a little cabin in the woods. We spent many a week-end there.
