As I walk into the land of free…..

I open my eyes when a little birdie chirrups at my window sill

And let in the  subdued  sounds of the morning my room to  fill

I step out as the golden light of the sun illumine my  sleepy neighbourhood

And stop to admire the crystalline dew gently kissing the fragrant rose – a sight to behold!

 
I walk on the wet and velvety grass

Its soft blades gently my feet caress

My steps are light, my senses bright

I breathe in the fresh air to my heart’s delight

 
The symphony of birds enliven the heaven and hearth

A beautiful morn is here with joy and mirth

As I take in all the beauty around

The cosmic grace makes me spellbound

 

It suddenly occurs to me that all best things in life are free

The simple pleasures always come tax free

We take for granted the blessings of Nature

That we ought to nourish and nurture

 
The first showers during a  summer fare

That brings a whiff of soil that wafts in the air

The sound of rain against the window pane

The laughter of children playing outside in the lane

 
The taste of a dainty dish cooked with relish and care

The special moment with a loved one that we share

A baby’s smile so divine

A soulful music that intoxicates like wine

 
All these and much more

Like waves that lash the shore

They bring forth peace and joy to the fore

If only we open our heart’s door!

 
We spend our days in anguish and pain

And live our life in ignorance and   vain

Stress, tensions and worries galore

With a never ending thirst for more and more

 
How can we forget to perceive

Or bare ourselves and receive

The bounty that life offers us

All we do is crib and curse…

 
Mother Nature in her kind wisdom

Has offered us all her kingdom

Sometimes we ought to relax and just be

It’s a sure ticket to the land of free…
