Steep hills stretch off into the distance, blue, <br />a wide expanse of valley in between. <br />Hawks are hovering in the sparkling sky, <br />and glide so elegantly o’er the scene. <br /> <br />Such vastness on view takes ones breath away, <br />transporting minds into another place. <br />One walks over the ground of tufted grass <br />green carpet, spread for miles across this space. <br /> <br />A river winds along its snaking way, <br />clear water shining bright under the sun, <br />And trees in thickets, dot the broad landscape, <br />giving sweet shade to cows, such coolness won. <br /> <br />To sit, to dream and thus to contemplate, <br />endless vistas that so attract the eye. <br />Nature in all its colours, fill this earth, <br />and compliment the wide clear azure sky. <br /> <br /> <br />© Ernestine Northover<br /><br />Ernestine Northover<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/transporting-minds/
