In thought, by Hans Andersen Brendekilde

The Bounty

The Bounty
 
I live among the
Tender green fields
Of corn and watch them
Waltzing with the
Early summer wind
 
I walk among the
Vineyards that stretch
Beyond my dreams and
Marvel at Mother Nature’s
Handiwork as she
Offers her bounty to me
What more can I ask for?
