New England
The sea winds calling
Calling beach tides thrilling
Thrilling woodlands for hiking
Hiking creeks within walking
Walking wildlife still sprawling
Sprawling plant life enthralling
Enthralling cobble streets for strolling
Strolling paints a New England town
A New England town of actual living sounds -
Sounds like I should permanently settle down:
Leading a simple life are solid folk.
Many fish the sea for their living.
In city life, they would be slowpokes,
but here time is for deep breathing.
Old light houses dot an idyllic coast
And fishing boats fill the scenic harbors.
There’s shellfish aplenty for dining ardor.
Many inns are old homes of lace and charm
reminiscent of America’s youth.
There are old horse bridges and farms
from when pride was America’s truth.
There is much history to relish
And nature to stir one zealous.
New England is the good life embellished
And an address that I would cherish.
