in the muck of news’ day platitudes
I’ve lost my cheery attitude
midst hate and anger screamed and spewed
what happened to beatitudes
but past these ugly, mindless feuds
beyond behavior simply rude
there is another world that can be viewed
in Nature’s holy latitudes
in this world outside our doors
flowers dance, birds sing, and oceans roar
a world that heeds not human news
where souls soar high on gratitude

Always good to remember. It’s one of the reasons I live in the country – I’m closer to all the better things.
Yes, country living certainly has its charms. Thanks for stopping by my blog and best wishes for more good things in your life.
Bravo. Very nice, esp the way you used beatitudes and latitudes. =)
Thanks! Best wishes for more wonders in your life.
