When I look back upon my life <br />The peacefulness I’ve had <br />Being raised in a gentle world <br />Of country with mom and dad <br /> <br />As an adult there are as well <br />Memories that surface too <br />A farming life I loved so much <br />Has this ever happened to you? <br /> <br />Just little things that come to mind <br />Getting mail from a box on the post <br />Life was slow and careful then <br />One of the things I loved the most <br /> <br />And Felix, oh how sweet he was <br />A cat with style and grace <br />Loved to hunt and climb trees <br />I’ll always have memories to trace <br /> <br />Life is good, it always was <br />At least it seems like it to me <br />Because I was lucky enough to have <br />The Gentle world of country!<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/gentle-world-of-country/
