In The Hills

Lisa Noe



In them their hills I do reside

I love to explore the countryside

The trees are full and fat with leaves

I don’t even mind they make me sneeze

The beauty is every where you look

I go down the mountain and follow the brook

Autumn brings forth a colorful spree

My favorite is the Maple tree

Nature it is beauty beyond compare

This is not something I can spare

Critters scurrying up a tree

Or in a hole for they are free

I love the outdoors all through the year

Every season brings happy tears

If they took my forest from me

I’d fight them till they let it be.
