My Bride...



My Bride...'
~~~
The countryside is 'my bride'
For it is of an interest to what
I adhere...
~
Whether late or early I often
Dander along country roads
Across a local valley.
~
The latter endeavour includes
Encountering rain, frost,or snow,
Or the warmth of the sun.
~
A rural district permeated with
A chorus of bees, birds, and the
Mutterings of sheep and cows.
~
An area of solitude and peace-
A doorway to the realm of
Our source...
~
Yes, I love her and the ring I gave
To her during my early teens was
Akin to a flower of love.
