TAKE ME
Take me down the garden, out through the gate.
Where the foal is staggering about on wobbly legs.
With her mum trying to steady her for her first milk drink.
We lean on the gate, taking in the scene of new life and first cry.
Thinking how fortunate we are to live where we do.
Watching nature and wild life arrive and survive.
Knowing generations before us nurtured and toiled in this place.
When we are long gone, others will plan, with sweat and toil,
The best way to keep nourishing and caretaking this blessed land.
