Day 15 - 7/27/20 - What makes the birds sing?

Oh in my wildest dreams
there’s a
Small house on fields of green
but if you look closely, you’ll see
all the colors in the rainbow
now follow me

Out the front door there’s a row of roses
a kiss of pink, red, yellow, for your noses
and good for mixin with honey, liquor, and tea
though there’s probably more,
let’s keep going

turn right
down the gravel driveway
say hi, over the fence
to all the animals you see
horses, cows, and a bunch of chickens
sheep and their lambs
cute as the dickens
here we go!

past the barn
and down around the bend
roll up your pants
time to jump in
we’ve got the garden
in all her glory
original reason
for my farming

since it’s late july
and the sun is riding high
let’s pick a bounty
mouth watering delight
cucumber, scallions, and mint
red string beans, red onion but don’t forget

them beets, what an earthy little treat
some kale and collards
gotta get those leafy greens
potatoes, and celery
to top it off
cause this basket is getting heavy!

from here, let’s walk
up that little hill
I know we’re tired
but the view will give you chills
under the shade of that walnut tree
you can see everything
it’s the view that makes the birds sing

And as we, walk back
through a big patch of green grass
an empty field fit for
grazin’ animals, next year you might ask
where’s your studio?
it’s the building just off the patio and that’s that!

Your tour of my wildest dreams
a steady rhythm on these
same 4 strings

And we’ll see, if we make it
to this beautiful oasis
and if we do I’ll have you over for dinner
please and thank you
(ooo’s)
