Goodwill For All

Picture perfect is my village


The private place I go for respite

Friendly passersby shake my hands

And ladies curtsy along their way.

A lovely park is home to the brook

A tiny footbridge crosses over it

A bright, white gazebo offers a seat

Where loved ones pass the time

Birds call and sing and flutter about

The businesses of the town down the hill

Markets for the farmers, a shop for the milliner,

Candies at the sweet shop, a blacksmith for ironworks,

A lumberyard, a printer, a feed store and a mill,

Everyone in keeping with harmony

Relaxation and goodwill for all.
