Idyllic scene of pastoral bliss
If only it were just like this
But there are mornings that are all too early
Hundreds of chores that await you surely
There are livestock to feed, fences to mend
And piles of muck, so we can’t pretend
That there’s no downside to the rural disguise
It’s not all meadows with sunlit skies
Padre
I am feeling depleted and tired
Shuffling my feet, I’m no longer wired
I slept all day like a log
In the evening I saw your blog
Now I feel I can, once again, write
Even though, it looks a fright

This is so true of rural settings. There’s always work to be done even though most people tend to think its all soft and easy in the rural settings.
Thanks for sharing Padre!
