The Wild Haven

 

Come into the garden and find a quite spot
The grass is long and the weeds grow a lot.
Brambles and climbers scale up the wall
Plenty of nettles but no roses at all.

Lay down on the grass and look up at the sky,
Watch all the clouds as they tumble past by.
Then rest your fingers and relax your eyes,
No one can see you or hear your sigh’s.

You will see no trellis or cultivation here,
Nature takes it’s measured steps year upon year.
When the birds all arrive they are joyous in song,
Then rabbits and squirrels make up the throng.

They all enjoy freedom in this wondrous place,
It’s so peaceful and wild they have made it their base.
The bee’s take the nectar from a variety of flowers,
While the cat’s bask in the sun in the daylight hour’s.

There’s no political correctness or law’s to abide,
You just come here to rest, relax and to hide.
while you are in this place reflect upon life,
and try not to dwell on the killing and strife.

The top of the heap is supposed to be man,
Compare him with nature and he turns out a sham.
Food warmth and love we all need the same
The rich are applauded while the poor get the blame,
