An Evening in the Countryside


 Strolling among the wildflowers during eventide. 
So calm, so quiet. 

No cars with loud mufflers dragging.
No semi's rattling the house.
No neighbors yelling.

It all fades into o b l i v i o n 
until there is only
 tranquility
& birdsong
the buzz of busy bugs.

It is the matchless twilight hum 
that can solely be found
among the gently rolling hills 
of the countryside.
