COUNTRY

I have lived in, and certainly enjoyed the countryside for most of my life. The diversity of life, the ‘living’ pictures I walk through with the dog bounding ahead of me, and the vast panoramas which open up as I crest a hill. I love the peace of the countryside too, the precious solitude an escape from the busyness of life, and the closeness to all of life in nature. Don’t get me wrong, I love a visit to the city, but within a few days I’m yearning for a return to the country.
